This Camry SE came in with a dent across the front fender, running through the body line above the wheel. The owner wanted it fixed without going through insurance, so the goal was a repair that looked right and kept the cost down.

## What we did

Because the metal wasn't torn, we repaired the original fender rather than replacing it. We worked the dent back out from behind and restored the body line so it runs straight from the headlight to the door again, then finished the surface and checked it under the shop lights before any primer went on.

The fender was then primed and painted in the Camry's silver. Silver is one of the hardest colors to match, because the metallic flake has to sit the same way as the panels next to it, so we blended the new paint into the edge of the door and the bumper. That way the eye doesn't catch a line where the new paint stops.

## The result

The fender came back straight, with a crisp body line and a finish that matches the rest of the car. The Camry was done in three working days.
