Re: Quarter Panel Replacement
has to be done almost perfect, you can weld a twist in your car easyer than you think, and the car will never go down the road straight.
the 1/4 panels are structural supports and should be done on the frame rack by a pro who knows what they're doing. not something you want to do in your driveway.1998 bright red camaro ,M5 ,Y87 ,stock<br /><br />Originally posted by Rune:<br />If it smells like a turd and looks like a turd, chances are its probably not a candy bar.Comment
