The fenders are the same ones beat out, little bit of welding and painted. The also painted my hood and doors. There are some paint chips and imperfections they left, but I'll take care of those. One of the workers drove her home and buffed her for me! They overall did an awesome job and there's no evidence of the sideswipe! Really excited! Here's a pic I took tonight..

I just got most of my '49 back from the painter, and I am a nervous wreck! Your after pictures look great.
