Default 90 4dr body kit ?

ok, i'm not going for rice here.. in fact i dont really 'want' one, it's just that i've got so much rust around my rear wheel wells that i'm open to all my options..

just considering some way to cover up giant rust holes in the rear quarter..

any ideas ?

agreed....you don't need a body kit....I've got some window cutouts that we could cut to fit and weld in place....we could even make you some wide body fender wells if you wanted....don't under estimate my abilities with metal :D

(i got all the way out to the parking lot here at the shop with the camera to take some pictures before i saw the TJ and realized i was a dumbass and that the rust holes were on the civic, on stands, in my garage, at home. heh)

finally got pictures..

here is the rust in question.. heh

keep in mind, i'm perfectly happy leaving it as is.. i kinda like the thought of a rusty, horridly ugly sleeper.. heh

all my efforts and plans for this car are under the hood, with the exception of the suspension..

'maybe' tinted windows.. and i'm probably going to do something with the gauges (for my own driving enjoyment), but other than that, the factory interior is in almost unbelievably good shape for it's 14 yr old age. sitting inside the car you forget what it looked like walking up to it..

anyway.. if there's an easy and cheap fix for this that wont look like ***, i may consider it.. but this is how bad it is..
