hey all

I was just wondering how hard it is to change a rear quarter panel....im definately gonna leave it up to a body shop to do...but i was just wondering if theres welds that would have to be cut thanks

yes it is a big job.. lots and lots of spot weld need to be drilled out and you have to take all the inside paneling out. i need to get mine replaced. so if you get yours done, let me know the pricing.

yea does sound like a big job....mine isnt wrecked or anything i formed a rust spot about the size of a silver dollar so i was just thinking about getting it replaced or is there some reasonable way i can stop the rust and keep it from coming back? thanks

well how bad and where is the rust damage. i mean you can definately keep it from coming back with a product like por-15 or whatnot. depending where the damage is you might not be able to easily cut it out and weld in a new piece.
