Default In need of a source for Quarter Panels on a Del Sol

I've tried several 'parts shops' online and retail. I cannot find anything.

Does any know a source?

if your talking rear quarter panels its not going to happen.
if you got the bank. go to hondaautomotiveparts.com
they're like 400 a side. and they are welded together. so you'll have to unweld the old ones and re weld in the new ones. itd be extremely expensive.
its much cheaper to cut and weld spots then a whole new one.

3 and 6 specifically.

Hey Red,

Yes I'm talking rear quarter panels and $400 IS pretty high.

I was really hoping for a source considering rustrepair.com and other sites have a large quantity of EG hatch quarters....

Someone save me

Rears? Not going to be cheap. You might be better off find a cheap shell with the body intact and cutting it up. So depending onteh amount of damage you might be better off doing patch repairs.

thats because they are still seperate.
IIRC del sols after being assembled are welded to the front/middle.
i don't know of anyone who's actually replaced an entire rear panel on a del sol.

i feel ya on the price i looked into doing it when mine was super rusted on the rear right infront of the wheel wells. but 400 just for the part is a little high for me.

you can just do patch repairs for probably less then that depending on the severity of your rust. mine was cheap but i know someone who does body/paint work.

I doubt that it would be practical to ship a panel to Toronto, but I just picked up a pretty complete shell in Missouri for $500. Not much of a rust problem in my area. Do you need the whole panel or just a small section that could be cut and packaged for shipping?

Hey man. I know your helping but I need you to clarify.

Are you saying you baught a pair of 'Del Sol' quarters for 80 bucks? or an EG hatch quarter panels for 80 bucks?

I'm confused by this as I called this place and they stated they did NOT have the quarter panels for a Del Sol.

Unfortunately eBay or another used parts supplier may be your only friend.

Someone backed into my rear quarter panel.

I actually bought the Helm body repair manual for Sols only to discover the rears were welded.
