I cannot direct you to a video, only relay what I did. I sanded the quarter paint off until all the body seams were visible. Next, I used a heat gun and putty knife to break all the seams until the quarter panel came off.

Try searching for rear quarter panel rather than fender - fender is at the front

Does that mean we can’t use “fender flares” anymore? “NOS L-88 C3 rear quarter panel flares” doesn’t roll off the tongue very well. 😂Originally Posted by 7T1vette

I'm sure if you Google-up "fender flares", you will see some. But, finding quarter panel repairs on a C3 by using the term "fender" is unlikely.
