Fender replacement...

I need to go junkyard hunting for a new right front fender for my CC to replace the one I bent last fall. I remember a discussion once about the front half of our crewcabs actually being Blazer or something. Are all the S-10 fenders the same or not? I'm hoping to find one the same color that I can bolt on and be done with it.

yep same sheetmetal for them all- I think that the fenders were the same even from the old-style grilles on the 94-96? models and the newer ones.

Same for all the second gen s-series as far as I know. (except RPO ZR2 of course)

Good luck on a color match. For the pewter there are nine variations.

Thanks Guys! Yeah, I figure finding the right color isn't going to be easy. Reality says, I'll be repainting whatever I get but then again, I might get lucky. At least I know how to paint and have the spray guns and compressor, etc, but it's been a long time.

Zr2's got different sheetmetal? Wasn't aware of that - what was different?

The front fenders have 1/2" larger opening all the way around and a lip for the flares to mount. The inner wheel well differs as well and has the ZR2 stamp in the lower rear.
Beyond that the profile is the same.
This gave them the same overall wheel opening with the flares attached.
