Default NEEDED! 92 Accord Passenger side

I was in an accident where the rear of my car was severely damaged, I need the whole side replaced. Does anyone have one for sale or know where I can get one?

Thanks,
Andrew

The whole side? Well their's multiple parts to the whole side, you got your fender, door/s, quarter panel, and depending on the severity the front and rear bumpers. It might end up being cheaper to buy a new car, unless you do the work yourself, but even then the parts are gonna reem you. Here's my advice do a search on like google or whatever for "Honda wholesale parts". Try comparing prices. If you can find the parts within driving distance do it, cause if you buy them from a private party you're still gonna have to pay shipping, and on body parts the shipping will be extremely costly.

I sincerely doubt you'll find a totaled vehicle, unless you just happen to luck out and find one sideswipped while parked.
Most times you'll find complete front or rear clips available which are traditionally grafted to the undamaged portion of a recipiant vehicle.
The problem you'll run into is that most all vehicles which are "totaled" by Insurance Companies go into "insurance pools" where these cars are sold and parted out to defer the cost of the claim; and these companies don't sell to the public.
If you have a freind or relative in the Auto Body business, they should have access to these vehicles.
It's either that, or buy a "parts car" and take what you need.

Thanks. Well the only part that is damaged is the "rear fender" but i noticed on the 92 it isn't one part. I guess it would be the rear passenger quarter panel. Looks to be a fairly large part though.

And the really 'pisser' part of this whole thing is that it's not a bolt on piece.
It's one of those
measure
measure
measure until you're blue it the face
and cut once
Then there's a whole bunch 'o' welding grinding and cursing to do.
And the skinned knuckles
The self doubts
The 5 cases of Beer
and...... after the beer; I forget

Yeah normally I would say just go to a junkyard that lets you pull the parts yourself and just buy a whole accord of your same year.But they all have rust on the rear quarter panel.And like they said it's just alot of work.

If you are somewhat mechanically inclined and have the tools and a place to work I would say find an accord your same years 90-93 with a bad engine or trans buy it for a few hundred and just swap in your engine or trans.

That's actually how I got one of my accords that I'm driving now.It had trans problems so I bought for $300 dollars fixed it and now I drive it everyday.
