Ever hear of front fender front patch panels!?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I know they make patch panels for the fenders, they go behind the front wheels.. but do they make ones for the bottom of the fender just in front of the front wheels??

you would think they would be popular since the battery acid destroys many of these panels just in that spot. I would rather not get whole new fenders since mine are perfect except just in front at the very bottom they are completely rotten...

anyone know who makes them??

typicly or at least what i've seen is that they only make the passenger front fender tip. the dirvers side doesn't typicly rust as commonly as the passenger side.
