I think that model is KL? Definitely not a XJ!
Might want to post it in that forum for more exposure. In the XJ discussion you would probably here something like......"pull the fender and slap another in and don't forget to check the overflow bottle for cracks."
I may have seen a KL, but didn't know what it was!
Good Luck you will probably have your post moved shortly!

Hi Mike,

Despite whether or not you're putting your damage claim through insurance, I'd still recommend taking the Jeep to a local body shop, and have them give you a write-up (estimate) on all of the parts that will need to be replaced. If you plan to do the work yourself (aka NOT put it through insurance), then you'll at least know where to start in terms of which parts you'll need.
