Welcome to 2CarPros.

Where are the wires located, what colors, anything you can think of to help me identify them. If the car won't start, it sounds like you may have damaged a ground or power supply to the fuel pump. Does the fuel gauge work? Also, can you hear the pump actuate when you first turn the key to the on position?

If possible, take a pic of the damage and upload it for me. I can't picture any wires in the fender that are exposed, so at this point, I have no idea,

Let me know,
Take care,
Joe
