DDMworks - Sky Fender Replacements
« on: January 11, 2010, 10:04:22 PM »
Hello Everyone,

The replacement sky fenders are here!

These are factory style replacement fenders for the 2007-2009 Saturn Sky/ Opel GT's. We put a lot of effort into getting these as close to stock as possible, which meant using a more complicated 3 piece molds to get all the details. The piece is then hand laid fiberglass, with extra backing placed along the edges to make them stronger. Also the bottom has been reinforced to make it a little stronger also. The grill inserts are not included and either the fender can be ran as an open vent, or you can transfer the vents over to the new fender. These molds were pulled off of stock fenders and line up very well, but we do recommend having them professionally fitted before painting.

You can purchase the fenders online here:

DDMWorks Sky Products http://ddmworks.com/sky/exterior/fender_replacement.html

The price per fender is $205, and we are going to do our best to get these shipped out within a couple days of orders, but we can only pull so many pieces per day. So the orders will be filled as they come in.

If you have any questions, please let me know, I will be happy to answer them!

Thanks again,
Dave

Awesome job getting these done!  I hear it is impossible to get replacement fenders for the Sky at this point, so DDM to the rescue!

GJ,
Gotta remember that Solstice fenders are metal (repairable?), and Sky fenders are made of plastic and crack easily. This is why this has become such an issue with the Sky part of the community.

Yes, right now the fenders are not available through GM, although ours did come in slightly lighter also, but not enough that I would suggest doing it for the weight savings.

Arabas,
The manufacturer of the Sky fender has stopped making them. GM doesn't currently have a source to buy them from, so you can't order one from the dealer. Our thanks are to DDM and their outstanding work in supporting this community. We couldn't do it without you.
