I have a 2006 F-150, I am looking to replace my front drivers side quarter panel. I have been trying to find a price online or a website that may sell them. Has anyone come across any good website for this? I have tried jcwhitney.com, no luck there. Thanks for the help.

I'm not familiar with the truck itself, but if its a bolt on, its easy. Just get the paint matched and bolt it up. If its welded in, then thats a whole different story.

400 bucks if this is what you need

SO I need the front drivers side. It has a few dents in it as well as the paint has been scratched. It looks kinda bad. It is one of those things that I know it there and drives me crazy...lol. Also for the other response, it is bolt on.

ebay is usually fine man. get a catalog, or you should be able to find out online the pat #. Just make sure the match up.

I've done it before, works fine man as long as you research it out. Actually I am going to be ordering some new tail light for my Lexus off ebay soon. One is broken from a hit and run, and the other is cracked from when I got the car.

Youre looking at 800+ including paint.


I'd be considerably cheaper looking around for a parts truck or going to a pick & pull yard.


That being said installing fenders blows. If you dont get it lined up right it looks like shit and the door can fuck up the fender.

a parts yard would be the best thing. short of that just park next to an identical car in a town you dont like and swap the panels over in the middle of the night.
