About This Quarter Panel
A quarter panel is welded and bonded to the body, not bolted, so this is collision-repair work for a body shop, and the shop's labor and refinish time dominates the job. On some vehicles a used outer quarter panel is not the right part at all. I-CAR's inter-industry best practice is that outer quarter panels with rolled hem flanges are not candidates for recycled part usage: the flange is formed by folding the outer panel over the inner one with adhesive, the way a door skin wraps a door shell, so removal grinds the hem edge off, and the flange cannot be straightened to release the inner panel without work-hardening it until it may fail. From the 2015 model year, I-CAR's partial part replacement lookup flags which vehicles are built that way. Better to know that than buy a panel your shop cannot use.

Before you order, it helps to read:
Common Signs Your Quarter Panel May Need Replacing
- Impact damage to the rear corner, with the door gap or arch out of line
- Rust bubbling along the wheel-arch lip, or behind the wheel where debris packs
- Corrosion creeping out of the fuel-filler recess and under the paint
- Filler lifting or blistering over an older repair to the panel
- A trunk lid, rear door or tail lamp that no longer lines up
- Rippling above the arch or along the sail panel after an old pull
Symptoms vary by vehicle and driving conditions. Always confirm diagnosis before replacement.
What to Check When Buying a Used Quarter Panel
- Ask your shop whether your vehicle has a rolled hem flange quarter panel
- Book the body shop before the part - this is welded and bonded, not bolt-on
- Match year, side and body style, and confirm which side the filler is on
- Decide full panel or section with the shop - the OEM procedure sets the cut
- Ask what is in the area: filler housing, tail lamp, trim, airbag sensor
- Read your paint code off the driver door jamb - it arrives in the donor color
Ask for these details and any available photos before approving a purchase.
What Happens After You Request a Quote

How Pricing Is Determined
Pricing for used quarter panel depends on several factors:
- Vehicle year, make, model, and engine configuration
- Mileage and overall condition of the donor vehicle
- Supplier location and shipping distance
- Warranty coverage offered
We quote rather than publish prices, and on a quarter panel the bodyshop side is the larger cost, so get the repair plan written before you order. Our quote moves on whether the shop wants a full outer panel, a sectioned cut or a larger assembly with inner structure, then year, side and body style, then condition around the arch and filler. Large panels ship as freight, and they land in the donor color, so paint and blending belong in the budget, not in a surprise later.
Confirm the final price and fitment basis before approving a purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a quarter panel bolted on or welded?
Welded and bonded. It is part of the body side, not a fastened panel like a fender, so replacing one is collision-repair work for a qualified body shop following the manufacturer's procedure. Those procedures specify adhesives too - the 2019 Chrysler Pacifica outer quarter panel procedure applies adhesive to the back of the panel and anti-flutter adhesive to the rear wheelhouse - and they are not optional.
Is a used quarter panel ever the wrong choice?
Yes, and it is worth checking before you spend. I-CAR's best practice, developed with vehicle makers, repairers and insurers, is that outer quarter panels with rolled hem flanges are not candidates for recycled part usage: removal grinds the hem edge off, and the flange cannot be straightened to release the inner panel. More generally, if a part cannot be removed without destroying the mounting location and adjacent panels cannot be accessed, it may not be a candidate for a recycled part.
Can I buy just a cut section instead of a full panel?
Often yes, but where the cut goes is the manufacturer's call, not the yard's. Sectioning is only allowed where the vehicle maker's repair information supports it - Ford updated the 2015-2017 Mustang workshop manuals in January 2017 to add outer quarter panel sectioning through the sail panel - and GM does not sanction clipping, because it cuts across major load-bearing paths. Have the shop confirm what the procedure permits, then ask us to quote it.
What else sits in the quarter panel that I should ask about?
More than the skin. The area can carry the fuel-filler housing, tail lamp mounting, trim and moldings, and on many cars a curtain airbag sensor mounts in the quarter panel - where that airbag deployed, the sensor is on the manufacturer's replacement list. None of it is DIY. Get the shop's list of what transfers and what must come with the panel.
The rear quarter is dented but not torn - can it be pulled instead of replaced?
Possibly, and it is worth settling before you buy a panel. I-CAR notes that some makers now build outer panels such as door skins and quarter panels from high-strength steel around 340 MPa for dent resistance, and that being high-strength steel does not by itself make a panel unrepairable - many publish material repairability information saying what can be repaired. Ask us to quote once the shop decides.
Does the body have to be measured before a used quarter panel goes on?
On collision damage, yes. I-CAR's position is that three-dimensional measuring gives an accurate assessment of damage, that some vehicle makers specifically recommend it, and that measurements are documented before and after straightening. Weld a panel onto a body that is still out of shape and you get door and trunk gaps that never come right, after the paint is done.
Does anything have to go on the seams so the new quarter panel does not rust?
Yes, and the maker's procedure names it. I-CAR explains that weldable seam sealers provide corrosion protection between panel flanges during squeeze-type resistance spot welding, and quotes Nissan's manual that spot sealer must be applied to the mating surfaces to prevent rust formation. Bare metal left between welds is where the next round of corrosion starts.
Why does the shop want the trunk and interior stripped before welding a quarter panel?
Fire and electronics, mostly. I-CAR's welding guidance is to disconnect the battery and shut systems down, remove modules, sensors and wiring from the weld area - typically anything within 300 mm, with the OEM setting the distance - and take out foams, sealers and adhesives, which are highly flammable and can ignite rapidly and travel. Glass comes out or gets covered.
How is compatibility verified?
Provide your VIN or full vehicle details so you can review the fitment basis in your quote before approving a purchase.
What if the part does not fit?
Most suppliers offer limited return or exchange options. Warranty and return terms are confirmed before purchase.
How long does shipping take?
Shipping time varies by location, part size, and freight arrangement. Confirm the dispatch and delivery estimate in your quote.
