    If you have a full GM quarter panel (or even a good repro) regardless of what some say I sure wouldn't butcher it all up to replace only the section that's rusted on your car... separate the old one at the roof line, the trunk lip, and tail panel, then weld the complete quarter on it, the way the original one was installed, and they way it was intended to be installed. If you need to go up to the trunk lip anyhow, replace the whole thing... why cut up the quarter panel and have a seam to hide where there doesn't need to be?
