I got smacked and the quarter is trashed. Has anyone ever had it replaced. Parts are not to expensive, but I'm looking for labor $ so I can see if it's worth fixing or time to look for a new bird.

 

since i am an expert at this (my right rear 1/4 panel has been hit 3 times in the last 6 months) i can tell you exactly what it costs.
1st time-hit hard and need new 1/4 panel. total was $2300
2nd time-a city van hit it and scraped down th side. total was $1300 just for repairs
3rd time-a drunk driver plowed into it and i needed a new bumper and repaired the 1/4 panel and that was $1800
hope this helps

 

yup i got an estimate for replacing the whole quarter for $1,500, and the guy was giving me a break...

 

Your kidding, that much to replace it? Does that include painting and all to then?

 

I spliced mine right in front of the filler door for $5 & a half case of beer

Well, time to look for a new bird.
