In the pics on the web site...it looks as if all 1/4 panels are for a pickup.
Or am I mistaken?
Just a reminder..I have 90 4runner sr5. Im looking for rear quarters,primarily driver side.
Thank you for the link...def. worth saving!

no .. not "full" 1/4r' yet! ... only the metal weld ins... and please dont confuse these with any other products .. these are STAMPED in Japan , and are a perfect fit guarenteed ! .. not like other websites .

just wondering if you have actually used this stuff ? I have looked hi and low for a "thread" on an install of this product but cant seem to find one ? we distributed this stuff for about a month (4 years ago), and that was it ... it's crap ! ..........we dropped the line , i'm actually surprised there still around .

biggest problem we run into .. and please dont take this the wrong way ..

toyota guys are cheep for body repairs !! they just dont want to pay for quality body pieces .. WAAAA it's a 25 year old truck , YET , they will pay thousands and thousands to the marlins, and trailgears for suspension stuff ... but , when we did our market reasearch for "stamping" new floor pans .. for instance.

toyota owners whom wanted them .. only wanted to pay $25.00 ea. real market production costs and min. mark up suggested an ea. price "volume" cost of $125.00 . for a quality product . quite a differance !

hence ... we wont be doing it untill the market changes .

.

Slacker...thank you so much for t all of your insight on this bady panel ordeal and connection.
When my quarter gets too nasty to look at...Im making a purchase and I'll pry get both sides and the rockers as well.
i like the idea of perfect fit. My bud's body shop,that will be doing the work will love that.
Thanx again!
