I have been working on my 88 TA for about a few months now. I finally got to the RR quarter panel and would like to replace with new if possible. I attached a pic. The previous owner killed it with bondo and fiberglass and it looked very bad... It was cracked every where. please tell me where to find an aftermarket new quarter please.

 

I'm not sure about aftermarket, but imo it would be easier, cheaper and faster to find a good condition one in the boneyard or off ebay

 

What possible reason would there be to go new anyway? Unless you have an ultra-rare car, there's no reason I can think of.

I got a rear quarter from them that my body guy used for as a patch panel.

 

what's the difference between a Q skin and the other one?

 

Because having 40 lbs of bondo on your car is stupid.

Bondo is meant to be used in a skim coat application, to fill in SMALL imperfections. Anybody who says otherwise is dumb. replacing the rear 1/4 panel is a GREAT idea for someone who wants to have it last.

Bondo (when applied more than an 1/8th inch deep) cracks, and sometimes falls off.

 

I didn't mean new vs. Bondo, I meant new vs. used from the scrapyard.

 

Ahhh, ok missunderstood... mah bad
