My eg hatch has a 99 conversion on it. Some stupid peson backed up into my driver side the other day and messsed up the fender. I was planning on buying some fiberglass fenders but I don't know if the corner can be measured and cut to fit 99? Any suggestions anyone?

Don't put any F-glass parts on your car at all, let alone fenders. Just get metal ones. It will save you time and money in the lon run.

fiberglass is just like lays potato chips. Dont bother, its not worth it.. Besides you can find stock replacements for under $150. Just have to prime and spray yourself.
