hello all,
im new to the forum and i cant seem to find anything on how to remove the driver side fender & door.
my issue here is this past weekend while opening the driver side door the wind blew so hard that the door was
force to open wide and now i think the hinges are bent. im trying to remove the fender to get to the driver door.
btw, to driver side door will not open its hitting the driver side fender.

need your help asap.

thanks in advance,

 

Post a pic! Sometimes body shops can bend things back into place.

You dont need to remove the fenders to unbolt the doors, if I remember correctly theres only 2 14mm bolts holding each door. Remove the wiring harness, you might have to how it unclips by moving the rubber wire shielding. Then simply grab an open end, while having a buddy lift the door un bolt the door off.

 

heres a pic of the door hitting the fender. kind of hard to see.

 

Take some more angled shots, also is the paint chipped on the fender? I say that because you might be able to take it to a pdr (paintless dent removal) guy and have him bend that fender and door back into shape with out doing paint work. Because if you take your car to a body shop they will most likely charge you more to repair that because of the tri stage color, its one of the most difficult colors to match.

Even if that paint is chipped, taking it to a body shop most likely they wouldnt replace the door nor the fender as both look repairable from the pics.
