my bumper has the same crack n the same spot lol, same fender damage, that other one dont worry about it, buy the fender and get the paint code to match your car then just paint it, but over all very nice looking cali car... just watch out for parts that will get you u into trouble with the pigs lol, also mount that bumper back up with a zip tie

Yeah, my 3 inch wide muffler doesn't help keep me discreet from cops ha.. So just replace the driver side fender? would the dent above the rear wheel well be expensive to fix? I am tempted to just buy all new bumpers/fenders where needed and repaint the entire car a dark silver/charcoal

Can anyone recommend a good height where the car doesn't scrape too often but looks real clean?

im sure its a replica..

a new fender is definitely needed..use some jb-weld stick and use it to make a new bumper part where it ripped at the ends..drill a new hole where you'd drill it to the fender..as for the quarter panel, just take the car to the body shop when you get it painted and they should be able to make it look brand new
