Anyone know approximately how much it would cost to install a quarter panel on a Fox Hatch? I've looked for a patch panel for the lower left rear but can't seem to locate one. Any recommend shops in Charleston and surrounding area also.

If your willing to work with a good quarter from a 92 GT, I know a guy that has one he is parting out, it was hit in the front, quarters are good. it would have to be "cut out". I'll check on it if interested. it's a lot of work/labor if you need to replace the whole quarter, cutting out all the spot welds and fitting, I've done it, don't care to again.

Sure thanks. I thought someone had just a lower patch panel but seems all that's out there are complete quarters. I just hope it's not more trouble than it's worth.

How much does a full quarter panel cost? If your paying someone to do the repair it may be cost effective to buy the new quarter because what you save in purchase price with a "used piece" will get eaten up in labor costs to get it ready to install........plus some shops won't work with used stuff. I replaced one with a used panel, but I did all the work myself. I'll inquire about the used piece for you.

CJ Pony parts has a full quarter for $300. I checked Late Model Resto and they didn't have any listed. Those are the only 2 places so far that I've checked.

I checked out that used quarter, wasn't as good as I thought, when the GT trim came off there was rot underneath. sorry if I got your hopes up.
