How to replace rear panel - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

My 89 240sx hatchback got side swiped on the driver side

I got the mirror replaced and I think I can bang out the dents on the fender, but the rear quarterpan has been ripped.

I can get the replacement from a junkyard.

I have looked in the FSM, but I have no clue how to take it off and replace it with a new one.

Can anyone give me any clues?

thanks much

i have an s14, but im pretty certain you cant unbolt the rear panel, you'll probably have to have a shop cut/weld a new piece of metal in

yep
rear panel is nto removeable
requires some heavy duty body work
either cut and paste from another or bondo or a combo of both

or go wide rear fenders

haha
