No I actually am looking to get rid of the entire quarter panel and replace it with a fiberglass type or equivalent... perferably wider.

I was only joking... but that rear quarter panel is a very important structual piece on these cars. Tampering with them is crucial. If your doind it for weight reduction you wont find anything, but if you want to have that wide body look, you'll have to be creative.

Yeah, I wouldn't screw with the rear quarterpanels. They're steel for a reason, they need to be strong.

The hood doesn't have to be steel, but in the event of an accident, it sure absorbs a lot more of the impact than a fiberglass one does!
