try going to a chrysler/dodge dealership and see if they can get the part. bring in the broken part cause they can pull up a picture of the whole area the part is from. Only suggestion i have about the fender is try to junkyard it ? not too many 04s in the junkyard tho

If your deductible is $500 or less, I'd go that route. You are going to spend more trying to piece it together (unless you get all junkyard/Craigslist parts); and this is without any painting.

If you needed 02 headlights I could hook you up.
Try looking through this list. Some of the sites might have what you need.

stay away from your insurance man, believe me they will get back every penny they pay you out in increased rates over your lifetime.

chinese fenders are only like 100 bucks each
most cars in the wrecking yard have had front end collisions so headlights will be like finding gold.

as for the mirror go to the wreckers and replace the whole housing for like 20bucks there will be PLENTY of sideview mirrors there

It depends how the accident occurred/your company. I totaled my old Neon and my rates didn't go up.

If having a car that is one color doesn't matter, then it's going to depend if you can find cheap enough parts.

The nice thing about knowing people in collision repair is you usually only need to buy the supplies. Nice!

You can usually find a non-OEM headlight online for ~$50.

I got the cheap ebay headlight for my 03 for $29.00 2 years ago, and it fit pretty good. Just be sure to reuse the MOPAR trim gasket, as the new one that comes with it will degerade from the sunlight in about 6 months. I learned the hard way as I had to get new gaskets from the dealer at $27.00/set. As far as fenders, I got remanufactured OEM off of Ebay also. $59.00 with free shipping. They were really oem, as they still had the vin sticker on the inside. They come primered, and bolt right on with no adjustments. Just looked after I posted, and couldn't find any OEM fenders.
