2015 Yaris L Fender replacement [Help needed..!!!]
My car is involved in an accident.
The entire driver side fender is bent and crushed in this accident. I removed the front lamp and mud guard and tied up the hanging cables. Now I want to replace Fender. I think it will be just remove the current Fender and straighten some stuff and I will done. Is this is easy to do it myself?? I am thinking of buying parts from https://metrotoyotapartsnow.com/part...agramCallOut=1 Any help and suggestions??? |

Don't you need a new bumper too?
It looks like the bumper is missing a piece.

The area which is drawn with red around it, is missing on your bumper.
Take a look at the picture here:

I think you may need a significant amount of work under the hood before you'll simply be able to bolt on a new fender, bumper, and headlight. In your photo, things look rather mangled in there!

I checked under the hood, there is no visible damage, and moreover I drove like 40miles or so after the brush off with divider

Agreed w/ kimona. Looks like you're going to need a BFH to get the sheet metal back into factory position before anything can be bolted back up. Might just be the picture, but it doesn't look like a simple R&R.

I would take it to a body shop for a free estimate and determine exactly what needs to be done. The body shop will give you a print-out of the work/parts required. Then, you can take it from there.
BTW, don't you have insurance? |

I'm really hoping that you are insured but have opted out of the coverage that would cover your particular type of accident, ie comprehensive.
