Hey all, just wondering if anyone knows a site that I can order some patch panels off of for my rusting quarters. I've only found one site and it doesn't go above like 1995 for Civics, I have a 98 DX Hatch. I'd rather patch my quarters than go all out and replace the entire panel. Thanks in advance.

 

Guess not lol...

 

i would also like to know

 

you could go to a junkyard and cut the patches out of a car

Yeah I know I could do that, but I want to know if the patches are sold for a 98 Hatch. I'd rather buy a patch than search for a salvage quarter with no rust on it.

 

Honda does sell the intire rear quarters, they are expensive, but do come with EVERYTHING

 

i know somewhere makes a few i just dont know where lol, my freind got a few

lol, I know I can buy the quarters... I asked if anyone knew if and where patch panels were sold for a 98 Hatch. I'd rather buy 2 patch panels for $20 a piece rather than the $468.00 per quarter panel.

 

oooooh, in that case let me know if you find a place with integra patch panels!

 

Some autozones sell 1/4 panel patch panels. Got both of mine for 100 for the pair

Yeah that's the site that only goes up to like 95 for the Civics, I have a 98.

 

Show some pics. How bad is it? Is it into the wheelhouse/inner quarter area?

If I remember I'll try to take some pics after work, it's not too bad right now, but it's getting there. On my left quarter it's basically surface rust, on the right quarter it's rusting out pretty bad where the bumper meets the quarter. I may just craft something for the right side.

 

Yeah, you're probably better off cutting sheetmetal to replace the rusted areas.

 

thats iffy, if the rust is inbetween the two body layers, which it probably is, the second you reseal it with paint its going to start bubbiling from the hydrogen.
