I am urgently looking for a left front fender for my 4.8 GRX Y61 2007 Nissan Patrol, I think the fenders are all the same as long as its 2005 and up.
If you know of any Patrols at scrap dealers let me know so I can call them to check if they have one.
Many thanks

Lol, dont worry guys its not too serious damage
I drove into my vibracrete wall in my driveway while parking

I almost cried.
I bought a desert wolf trailer in December and its now parked in my garage where the patrol normally parks and I am not used to parking the patrol outside and I misjudged the space and broke the left side of the bumper, scrapped the fender arch and fender. Insurance have agreed to replace all the parts except for the fender which they want to repair or they will replace if I can source a second hand one but I could not get one anywhere. Tried that one in Stikland but unfortunately the left side is damaged Tinus. I don't like polly filler on my trol so looks like I will be buying a new fender from Nissan and insurance will cover the paint and labour costs.
You won't believe it but the plastic fender arch/mould part is more expensive than the front bumper

Sounds like a good excuse to fit a steel bumper / bull bar?

I would like to keep the car as stock as possible and don't want the extra weight and look of a steel bumper on the front.
Although I must say that nothings beats a steel bumper for protection

just might break the wall down by mistake
