Hell i'm starting to realise it should have been a better desision just to buy a new rear panel as i can't replicate the forms around the rear lights and what pains me is that the other side is even worse.... the whole rear has been repaired a long time ago by an ape with SMAW and it is riddled with slag that explodes when i weld near it :shock:

the status now:

the other side e_surprised

i'm kinda commited now but it would be nice to start off with a new rear panel... do you know where can i get one new besides Waloth Nesch? at 220 plus shipment its a lot for a single panel :(

any help would be great :)

well i guess it will kinda have to do, just talked to a guy thats going to receive next friday a 4 cyl e21 for breaking and he told me he was going to inspect it and if the rear was in good condition i could go there to take the rear panel of.

do you guys protect both sides of the new panels you weld on the car? what if the backside is not acessible?

Tens a Auto Partes em Lisboa, no Jardim Constantino que costumam ter quase tudo, liga pra lá. Mas leva uma mente aberta, em algumas coisas eles esticam os preços!
