A real friend wouldn’t expect you to store
their vehicle this way.

Kick it to the curb and let your friend deal with it.

Don’t be a “ solution “ to someone else’s’ problem.

Man, I wouldn't have thought that a real friend would have let a "best friend" buy one of THOSE thingys. Coop

In my travels on Sunday, I happened across this later truck. I have no idea of the age but it appears that Jeep was using the same fender for some time. What's more, it appears to be symmetrical meaning that either a left or a right could be used for your patch or replacement.
