The best way is to try at the Junkyard, if he have a good one(s), otherwyse I guess You don't found any third party quarter for a fox body, due to lack of demand for these quarters...

If You want a lower quarter body panel is easily makeable with a hammer and a sheet of metal, and if Your quarter is destroyed over the wheel, and You don't found the right one, try the reverse panel cutted as You need, or a front fender over wheel part and weld on...

Personally I made a miracle with a bit of measurements, observation, and work...

Good chance!...

Why isn't this the forum for it?? This is the "Body" forum. Was this post in another forum prior to here? If so, sorry for the questions.

Those parts should be available at pretty much any wrecking yard that has older cars. The one close to me had quiet a few 87'-88' T-Birds with decent rear bumpers and quarters. Let me know where your located at and I'll get a price on those parts for you.

The proper forum is the "WANTED" forum. This one (body/appearance) is for discussing body and appearance upgrades, mods, etc, not for buying and selling. I'll move it to the correct forum

hellsing, I've got a rear bumper cover off of an 87/88 TC for $25. I may be in Detroit next month, so if you could meet up with me there, there wouldn't be any shipping charges.
