    I need to patch the lower rear quarter directly behind the wheel lip. Has anyone used Mustang panels to do this? If so how well does it match?

    I agree with Dave....I went to the big Mustang place with an exact cardboard copy of what I needed. Nothing was even close. This is the outside quarter panel.

    Now, if we are talking about the lower outside rear wheelhouse, the early Mustang piece will work. I have them on my car.

    When I was looking for good used pieces to replace my quarter bottoms, I got some good responses including a piece of lower cut from a NOS quarter. Send Mavaholic a PM - I can't say, for sure, it is from the same side of the car that you need but he should still have it :)
