Door/Fender rubbing - How Should I Move The Fender?

[TheUser]

Many have noted how they park way away from places and walk the distance to keep their stang out of harms way. I do the same and I try to park by curbs and what not, so I only have one side exposed. I did this Sunday and it came back to haunt me when I somehow managed to clip the front bumper/fender at the bottom where they meet on the curb It wasn't that big a of a deal since it didn't do much really, until I noticed Tuesday that the door is now contacting the fender when I open it. What is the best way to push a fender back w/o denting and all that stuff. I could snap a picture if desired. I need to fix this ASAP as I might actually have someone looking at it this sunday to buy it.

You can take care of it one of two ways. Either loosen the fender bolts and slide it ahead then tighten them back down, or take it to a shop or if you have one yourself. Use a thin Body Spoon between the fender and door and pry/roll them apart. Either way works, but if you do use a spoon then make sure that there are towels or something soft between the spoon and door on both sides so it doesnt scratch.
Is it hitting at the top or bottom? Probably right above the molding?

I say let me fix it and drop the price to about $2500 I say you should try loosening the bolts and sliding the fender foward some

Not a chance in hell! It's actually rubbing about 4-5 inches from the top of the fender. I'll prob. loosen the bolts, but it doesn't look like it moved any - guess it must have if it's rubbing . We'll see. Thanks.
