Default CRX Quarter panel patch panel will the ef hatch panel work?

I know this has been asked in the past but I have yet to see a clear answer. So I am going to start a CRX question. I have an ugly rust hole on both rear quarter, yall know what i'm talkin about. My question is this: Will the EF panel, after trimming, be able to fill the gap? The rust hole is from under the rear bumper to about 3-4"'s up the arch from the top of the bumper. The ef and crx just don't look enough alike. I know the ef's wheel arch lip looks close to the same radius as as the crx but the crx seems to have more of an angle when you travel farthe towards the glass? Should I purchase one of those EF patch panels or buy a, *gulp*, $400 panel from honda. Thanks for help

as it stands right now, no the ef panel will not fit on the crx "rust area." Until I hear otherwise this is the answer to this question.

No, the flares on the hatch vs the crx are completley different.

thats what I thought. Hmm, does anyone do rust repair on these little beuts anymore or do they all just rot away. I still like mine it just needs some work and paint and she'll be good as new. Just need to wait to get out of mech engineering school before I can aford a friggin panel.
