Lookin good so far, your doing it the right way by fixing metal with metal...alot of people go the easy way out and just plug it which will obviously come back to haunt you. I recently did body work on my quarters on a 95 EG as well actually, and my only suggestion is to make sure you fix the inner's before you patch the outers. If you dont address the inner quarter panels, that will also come back to haunt you as your probably aware.

What are you going to do about the back left quarter right before the tail light? Love the slipstreams
