i have a 96 civic hatch 2door and it has bad quarter panel damage someone hit it right in the area were the plastic strip is and the wheel well . back part near the taillight is fine . Thing is i got a guy who has 95 hatch quarter panels and they are already cut out and perfect condition . i know that the back parts were the lights wont match up but i just need the part that is b4 the gas cover .

My question is will it match up ? is the plastic strip on rear quarter panels on 95s diff height than 96s or anything else diff - they look like they would match if i wasn't using the back part of them .

These photos might help too.





You'll see the body line would be an issue at the very least. Hold out for the right part.

nofx that was god-like how you found an eg and ek the EXACT same pic size and exact mugshot angle

kudos

 

Thanks, but it wasn't really so impressive.

Here's how it went.

I save photos. Lots of photos. I mostly have Hondas, but some other cars too.

I currently have 1,201 photos of 5G Civic hatches.

I currently have 4,639 photos of 6G Civic hatches.

So I found a 6G hatch photo I liked and then found a 5G hatch photo from the same angle. Resized the 5G hatch photo since it was a bit larger, hosted the pics and made my post.

The end.

 

thats why you are so godlike ...

 

That definitely won't work...

and yes, NOFX always has the best info

 

**** they dont make replacement planels for 96's like they do 95's ? i can get a whole panel for a 95 brand new ready to weld in for like 280.

 

yes they do make replacement planels for 96's

 

srry this is old as sh*t lol

but were does one go about getting a replacement panel for a 96 ek -ej

 

Certifit might have them. I'd check eBay and car-part.com though. Just Google around. Maybe search for ("replacement quarter" forum civic) and see if you can stumble upon the right year or include each applicable year.
