I used two door rear panels ,but its a lot of work :cry: is it roting out at the top of the arch?it was a while ago but i think its a pre face lift rear arch,and a bit of sectioning,the old time verses money :D

To be honest there not that bad it's just starting to rot around the lip all other parts are fine I am restoring my car and just thought of doing it so there was no chance would need to do it later on after a few years down the line might see if they can be repaired but good the know I can use them cheers
