A painted fender should arrive matching the three panels around it, and that is exactly what we ship: a brand-new genuine OEM or OE-replacement fender, sprayed to the factory code we verify against your VIN, delivered ready to hang. The fender sits between your hood, door, and bumper, so a near-miss color has nowhere to hide. We take the guesswork out before the part ever reaches a spray booth.
Real numbers, straight from the 284 painted fenders in our catalog as of July 2026: the typical fender sells for about $825 with paint included, and the middle half of prices runs $740 to $940. That price covers the new part, the VIN-verified color match, the paint work, and a lifetime warranty on the finish. Compare that with a shop quote where the raw fender, the respray labor, and the blend work into the hood and door all bill separately.
A fender shares an edge with more painted panels than almost any other part on the car. Get the shade slightly warm or slightly flat and you will see it every morning in the driveway light. This is why we never match by eye. The color is mixed from the exact formula your manufacturer filed under your paint code, and both the code and the fitment are confirmed with the manufacturer against your VIN before we spray a drop. The finish goes on in PPG Envirobase High Performance waterborne paint, the same class of system the factories run. Our paint process page walks through every step.
Corner impacts rarely respect part boundaries. If your bumper took the hit too, we paint both parts to the same code in the same booth, so the repair reads as one surface. Start with our painted bumpers page for that half of the job, and the cost guide for what the numbers look like across 19 makes.
Fenders bolt to the body along the top rail and inner arch with standard fasteners. There is no welding and no glass work involved, which is why a fender swap is one of the friendlier DIY body jobs, and why a shop will fit a pre-painted one quickly. Your existing liner and trim carry over.
Buying it already painted from our catalog, most fenders land around $825 total, with the middle half between $740 and $940 depending on the make. A body-shop respray of your existing fender is quoted per job on labor hours, and repair work on dents or rust adds to it, so put an itemized local quote next to our fixed price for your exact fender.
It is painted to the code your car left the factory with, confirmed through your VIN with the manufacturer. On an original-paint car the match is what the factory intended. If your paint is heavily weathered or the car has been resprayed in a non-factory shade, send us an inquiry first and we will give you a straight answer about fit for your case.
The catalog carries both genuine OEM and OE-replacement fenders, and every listing states plainly which one you are looking at. Both tiers are brand new, painted with the same process, and covered by the same lifetime paint warranty.
Browse painted fenders or jump straight to your make and model. If your vehicle is not listed, send a part inquiry with your VIN and we will source and quote it before you commit.
