Lower rear quarter
Hi
Does anyone else know if u can buy lower rear quarter panels, it is the part that is hidden by the bumper, mine are a bit rotten,
Or would this be a fabrication job
Thanks for any advice

Re: Lower rear quarter
You can’t buy replacement panels brand new but if you are lucky you might find some one willing to do a body cut. Otherwise its a fabrication job. Not too difficult I did mine and a few people have posted their results on here too. Have a look around

Re: Lower rear quarter
I’ve not tackled this myself but I’ve spoken to some companies that will as most SW20s seem to need it now. Doesn’t appear to be a terrible job. Where are you based? Be worth checking if there are any companies nearby with a good reputation.

Re: Lower rear quarter
Thanks for the replies , I have been to see the garage and they have said they can repair it all, and it is worth doing, the new sills are on and 2 small holes in the floor. So not too bad for a 30 year old car, will update on the work being done hopefully back o the road in a couple of months
Thanks for the advice

Re: Lower rear quarter
My old stomping ground. Not been back in ages though.. What was the damage? You’re right to save it. Not enough left now to squander them over minor rust issues!

Paid 500 for the car was MOTd about 12 years ago, been in the garage for 10 years , I posted on here when I first took it out of the garage about 2 years ago. I will find the link
Mates at garage are charging about 700 to 900 for both sills and bit on the floor and the fabrication of lower quarters and inner wings.
Have many new parts for it. Exhaust, disks pads springs , drop links etc

Re: Lower rear quarter
Thanks for the link. I replied on that thread - definitely worth saving.
By damage I meant how much did it cost. Just curious really - but I’d have been happy to pay what you have to save it.
Have fun!
