Does anyone know of a source that sells a repair piece for the passenger side rear wheel well lip for my 98. I am starting to see a bit of rust there and notice the 2 pieces of metal there are separating a bit. It is probably rusting through from the backside and I want to have it taken care of before the rust spreads to the quarter panel itself. This is a job I will leave to a professional, but so far the shop I use hasn't been able to come up with the part. They can make the part themselves out of sheet metal, but a part already cut for this application would be quicker, cheaper and result in a more permanent repair. I have seen repair parts like this for other cars. With all the Camry's out there I would think some source has already manufactured one.
Does anyone have knowledege if such a repair panel already exists?
I did a Google search for JCW. I couldn't find anything other then JC Whitney. Is that what you meant? I did a search there and they only had some universal sheet metal to use as body panels.
Yeah, I meant J.C. Whitney. Sorry they couldn't help you.....I can't think of any more ideas.
Digger1,
I had the slight bit of rust repaired professionally earlier this week. These people do a lot of work on all my cars and they are like good friends. I had talked to them some time ago about POR15. They had heard of it being used by restorers but never used it. They ordered some of the stuff and used it this week on my car. They ground the bit of rust, used the POR15, primed over it, painted and clear coated the area and then wet sanded and buffed. They charged me very little for this job. Right now I can not tell there was ever any repair there. Now I just have to wait and see how long the repair lasts. They charged me very little for this job so it's worth a try.
