Tape off the edge before you pry it around and you wont take as much paint off. Or you could probly get a replacement fender from a junk yard for cheap.

Thanks. The wood trick was what we used to get the door to close somewhat normally again. We had a 2x4, car jack, and a sledgehammer. That seemed to do the trick for the most part.
