Quarter Panels?

I need to replace the quarters on my 85 Z-28. My question is does anyone make panels especially for the Z? I don't want to drill the holes for the ground effects and the spoiler. The ones I've seen so far don't look to have the holes predrilled and they are listed as a direct replacement for ALL Camaros.The rocker ground effect also has a pin and clip to hold it to the quarter what about that? Any info is appreciated.

Re: Quarter Panels?

For whatever it's worth, even a gm replacement part wouldnt have the holes and such in it, All of the original gm crash parts were always manufactured for non-trim, non gfx car in pretty much all of their car-lines.... a matter of economics. I'd say its a safe bet that any panel you get ANYWHERE will need that same work, and with a re-pop its better without the holes anyways - I doubt they'd put them in the right places from my experiences.....
