400 because its on the curved part of the fender and the paint will have to be color matched.

Might be cheaper to buy a new fender, install it yourself, and then have it painted to match.

That was going to be my suggestion too. I scored a clean drivers fender from the pick-a-part last weekend for $30. Something to keep in mind, if you do paint just the fender, it might stick out like a sore thumb. It looks like the upper color is black sapphire, one of the "peeler" colors from the late 80's.
