Ok guys Quarter panels are in the Car Yippy The problem is the left side trunk area has about a 1/2" gap between the trunk lid and the quarter.At first I thought it was me but door gaps about a 1/4" tail panel fits good and valence panel (Panel between the trunk and the top) when put down over the Quarters fits perfect on the right side, drivers side has a 1/2" gap all the way down
So do I extend the trunk lid or fight makeing a new piece for the quarter?This is what you get when it says made in china does any one know of somebody that sells a stamping of that area or will I have to make it myself?:sad:
Thanks David

do a search on here and find typical repro fit. I welded a piece of 1/8" bar down the quarter side rather than adding to lid and risking warpage . It was time consuming but happy with result.

Repop deck lid too? They are slightly narrower than OEM.
