When I bought the car, guy swore the quarters were not cut, but it was molded so I couldn't check myslef. well, they are cut. any guess on how hard or how much to have new quarters cut and welded on so I can have my new body kit put on? Here is a picture of the gap with the Shine back end "fitted"

 

Rear qtrs are $525 each, labor guess @ $1200 no paint etc.

 

that is to fabricate two small pieces? or buying and installing some?

 

You can buy them from mazda, they're $525 per side. And he thinks you'll pay $1200 in pure labor, without paint.

 

Gotcha. I'm going see if maybe they can fabricate something, has to be a more practical solution than 2k+$
