Ford Fender Repair: Aluminum Truck Fenders and Bronco Flares

From aluminum F-150 fenders to Bronco fender flares and Mustang fenders, here is how Ford fender damage is assessed and fixed.

Ford Fenders Come in Many Forms

On an F-150, the front fenders are aluminum. On a Bronco, bolt-on fender flares sit over the wheel openings. On a Mustang, the long front fenders shape the car's profile. The right repair depends on which Ford you drive.

Aluminum Truck Fenders

Aluminum fenders resist rust and save weight, but they need aluminum-specific repair tools. Small dents may be repaired; torn or deeply creased fenders are usually replaced. Replacement fenders are prepped with the correct primers before paint.

Bronco Fender Flares

Bronco fender flares take a beating on trails. Cracked or torn flares are replaced, and we check the mounting points and the fender beneath for hidden damage. Some Bronco trims use wider flares, so we match the part to your trim.

Mustang Fenders

Mustang fenders are prominent and closely fitted to the hood and headlamps. After a front corner impact, we check the fender apron and headlamp mounts, then align the new or repaired fender for even gaps.

Rear Bed Sides on Trucks

Truck owners often call bed sides fenders. On an F-150, bed sides are aluminum panels that may be repaired or replaced depending on damage. We also check the taillamp mounts and the bed structure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are replacement Ford fenders aluminum too?

On models that use aluminum fenders, yes. Ford specifies the correct material.

Can Bronco flares be painted to match?

Some trims use body-color flares; others are textured black. We match your original setup.

Does a fender repair affect alignment?

If the wheel was hit, alignment should be checked.
