Are 124 quarter panels replaceable?
Because if they are, it might be cheaper for me to just find a used one and skip the dent repair from my recent accident. I'm hearing some say around $500! And I know of some panels in a junkyard for $90.:)
If it's a unibody piece, is it too much trouble to remove and weld on a new one? Or would that just add up in cost as well? :(:confused: |
The rear panels are unibody ... the front fenders would have been easy ... I have a pair of front fenders in my basement right now. The rear clip could be welded on, but I wouldn't try it myself ... welding a highly visible area like that and having it look halfway decent takes some skill. If you have great welding skills, you could try hitting the junkyard, grabbing a bumper and cutting off the rear clip. I actually have a whole rear clip in my basement that I am saving in case the rust around my tail lamps gets too bad.:o

:( Grr
Well, that makes things more difficult. I don't have any welding experience (I wish I did though!) Looks like I'm going to have to get out a nice hammer and go to town..if I can't find someone to fix it for a reasonable price. |

Here's a picture, in case you didn't see it in my post from the OD
http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/off-topic-discussion/250686-my-first-accident-today.html The paint isn't too bad, except for in that one part where it is inverted :eek: Oh well. I think after a new bumper and light cover, it won't look too bad, even if they do a so-so job on the dent. (Apparently I can't post the same image twice?) |
awsrock, did you get this repaired yet? Reason I ask is I just found a nice rightside taillamp cover in my giant collection of 124 parts ... didn't even know I had it. I remembered you had damage to that light so thought maybe you'd be interested in it if you haven't replaced the cover already ...
