Nic Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 Due to one of my neighbours i need a price for : rear quarter panel left hand part no: 61612 1b090 cheers colin Colin, do you want a price from me or do you need urgently? However if the neighbour's coughing up the dough, you may as well get from there, at a premium price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted July 17, 2005 Author Share Posted July 17, 2005 Thanks for the offer Nic, but i need to get it done quickly. i will get a price from toyota and their attached bodyshop on monday, i think when the guy sees the price he will want to go through his insurance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 seem to remember it being about £178 + vat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 seem to remember it being about £178 + vat No way! That's very cheap - it's a big panel. The fitting won't be cheap either. Anyone remember when Dude replaced the same panel on Holly? Looked like a major amount of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 might have been £278 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted July 17, 2005 Author Share Posted July 17, 2005 The front wing was around 180, the rear will be quite a lot more i should think. Your right about it being a lot of work, it has to be blended where the panel meets the roof ! I reckon its gonna be at least £800 including the panel.

carl0s Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 i'm pretty sure it was £140 + vat for the front wing and £278 + vat for the rear quarter. I await to be told I'm talking rubbish though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovatt Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 col to be honest you would be better off getting that repaired than changed, changing a quarter can cause rust and leaks, that would be an easy repair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 No, you're about right. cool so what did you do to your car then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 i would agree that it would be much less hassle to just have the panel repaired. as long as it is carried out by a decent competent bodyshop you will never know the difference. im no expert but most of that dent would probably pull out then just fill and refinish it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Getting the panel swapped should be the best overall result as long as it's done properly. If your chosen body shop can't weld on a new panel without it leaking/going rusty then you need a new bodyshop -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 cool so what did you do to your car then? If you mean how did I damage her? After a light rain shower, exited Services in Belgium 'in convoy' (I was 2nd), where it hadn't rained for 6 weeks (so we found out later), wasn't pushing it hard and the back just went (someone else in the convoy felt his back go too; in a Skyline GTR), got her back in a straight line twice, thought it was over and touched the brake .... BIG MISTAKE, she just spun around ... One of the worst days of my life, but nobody was hurt, just my beautiful car General consensus was a fuel spill combined with the 'greasy' effect of rain aftrer a prolonged dry period (perhaps they were just trying to make me feel better, but I've never had anything happen like that in over 25 years) and RLTC did SFA .
