I have taken a fender that was damaged in the front and one that was damaged in the rear and made a good one. I made my cut line right above the wheel, bolted both clean halves to the truck and stitched it up slow and easy with spot welds. Then a little grinding, a little bondo...it looked pretty good. I could still see it, but I knew it was there. l also gave it a patch panel for the "rust pocket" too.
