Junkyard fender
Prev owner let his ins company put an aftermarket fender on this. It was starting to rust in some ways that the factory galvanized sheetmetal never rusts. Picked this up at a junkyard 300 miles away and the match is perfect!
Note: the door in this pic is off another junked car, the bumper and hood are original.

Great find! It's rare you can cobble that many parts together off different cars and have them match so well. From what I understand, Hibiscus was one of those colors that's impossible to match perfectly too. Like Pearl White, Silver and Volcano Black Mica

I think those are all hard to match when a shop mixes it on their own. But I have panels from 3 separate B5's and they all match perfectly. I've also bought about 4 cans of paint from automotivetouchup.com using my LZ3L code, and they've all been a perfect match.

Yea, it really does. Here's the reason I had to do the pass side door. I left it open while I was parked by a hoist. Hoist went up, caught the door and someone stopped the hoist when he noticed my car starting to "roll". Notice the angle of the pass side door.
