FENDER REPAIR
San Diego and Santee
Restoring Your Fender to Pre-Accident Condition, Backed by a Lifetime Warranty
Your fender takes the hit first, whether it’s a shopping cart in a parking lot, a fender bender at a stoplight, or road debris on the 8. At Carrillo & Sons Collision Center, we’ve been repairing fenders for San Diego County drivers since 1981. Our I-CAR Gold Class certified technicians assess every fender for hidden damage, not just what’s visible on the surface, so your vehicle leaves our shop as safe and structurally sound as the day it rolled off the line.
Types of Fender Damage We Repair
Dents and Dings: Minor to moderate dents from parking lot mishaps, hail, or low-speed impacts. When the paint is intact, our expert technicians use paintless dent repair (PDR) to push the metal back into shape without repainting, saving you time and money.
Scrapes and Scratches: Curb scrapes, key scratches, and paint transfer from side-swipes. We color-match your factory paint using manufacturer-specific formulas so the repair is invisible.
Cracks and Punctures: Common on plastic composite fenders after moderate impacts. We assess whether the panel can be structurally repaired or needs replacement, and we’ll walk you through both options honestly.
Rust and Corrosion: Coastal air and road salt eat away at fender wells over time. We treat and repair rust damage before it spreads to the frame or other panels.
Full Fender Replacement: When damage compromises the panel’s structural integrity or the fender houses ADAS sensors, cameras, or wiring, we replace it with OEM or manufacturer-approved parts and recalibrate any affected safety systems.
Choose Carrillo & Sons for Certified Fender Repairs
