Got a huge dent in my drivers side rear fender and it doesn't want to pull out very well. Got a perfect rear fender, drivers side, on my parts car. Do I just drill out spot welds or??? A little help if you please. I have excellent mechanical and welding ability and all the tools including a nice square-wave TIG. I however SUCK at body work (straightening, bondo etc.).

Yea, I first considered just takine the part of the fender that was bad and welding in the new piece but then I thought why?? Why not just replace the entire fender so I don't have to mess with the bondo? I realize cutting spot welds would pretty much suck badly but I have all the time in the world and would like it to look perfect when done. Am I missing something here? Is it that big of a deal to swap out the rear fender?
