Body panels
I may replace a fender in my truck next year, simply because it’s staring to get rust on the lower part. The metal is so thin anymore, there isn’t much material to allow for cleaning up rust and repainting. Are there any good aftermarket places to get a fender, or should I just shop local, maybe even a dealer part?

IMHO...
1) Repair what ya got- it fits, the bodylines are crisp & correct
2) Get a used fender- always best to work with OEM parts
3) Buy a replacement- if it's OEM ok, but you will still have to "Fit" the panel, but if it's aftermarket, good luck.
