Default Fender and Top?...

i have an 03 Silverstone Metaliic s2000 & this is basically a 2 part question was looking to see if anyone had any advice..

1.) if you were siting in the car, my right side front fender has a dent on it. i was woundering would it be worth just getting it fixed or should i just buy a new one, and if i were to buy a new one dose anyone have any sugestions where to get one (best price)?...

2.)the other question was basically my soft top has to rips in it about an inch long, ive been looking for patches to fix them up from the inside but cant find any. would anybody know where i would be able to find patches or should i just get a new top which would suck lol?...

Thanks for all the help ahead of time...

How big is the dent? Did it mess up the paint any? If not then just take it to a shop that does paintless dent repair and they can fix you up. If it did mess up the paint and is pretty bad, a normal body shop can easily fix it for you, and repaint the fender if necessary. For the paintless repair it will cost you less than $100 in most cases, and if you have to actually get it fixed and painted it's going to be pretty expensive, but still less than buying a whole new fender then getting it painted.

For the soft top patches, just post in the "want to buy" section here. There are guys here that sell peices of OEM soft tops for patches all the time. It will cost you maybe $10 for a patch.
