I have bubble where the rear panel meets the bumper, you wrote in a blog that it was due to condensation/lack of aerations, how can I prevent that? I already fixed the rust but it came again because of this!!! :(((( Thanks!!!
I welded metal back in for any the fender that was cut out, but I used seam sealer between the inner fender and outer panel instead of tack welding to avoid any chance of rust in the future.
Hard to say, it's been 15 years since I got a quote for any body work. I'd guess $500+ to do it the right way, cutting out and welding in new metal. That's not including any paint work. Then again, I could be off. If you get some quotes, I'm interested in what they're charging.
@@6thGearGarage Yeah at the moment I’m tossing up to get it done or just sell and get a new one that doesn’t need it done. I’ll have to get some quotes and see. I’ll let you know how it goes :)
Even if your super fast with Bondo like me it is still better to put in the whole panel if you look at all the time you spent with that seam you could have taken out the window and drilled the spot welds much faster. My tip is to keep the drill bit cold with a Windex bottle while drilling never let the bit get hot or it is dull.
This was back in 2006, so things were a lot cheaper back then. I think the panels were $40 each. Figure for body filler, primer, seam sealer, other misc supplies, maybe another 100. Then tools like angle grinder, drill, cutoff wheel probably 200-300. I already had those though, so it's hard to guess the total cost.
@@dirtbikesandstuff6469 Good deal! I'm currently replacing the rusty floors in a Toyota... it's a long job! I hope to have a video of the process in a couple of weeks.
I made my own panels for my Chevelle, Cordoba😢, Grande Prix GT , Swinger, GTO, Charger, LTD crown Victoria and my Mazda CX-9. I spent the entire summer after work and on weekends restoring my 383- 3 speed engine and complete body job including new floors and carpet on my 1972 Chevelle . It was scheduled to be painted ( metallic blue) on the upcoming Wednesday. The Sunday night prior I was driving to the store for some things. A woman ran a red light doing 62mph in a 30 zone . She wrote both cars off . The insurance paid me an extra $50. I lost over 7k in the early 80’s. This was truly heartbreaking for a university medical student without a pot to Piss in or a wi due to throw it out . Then came COViD - can’t win against these maniacs … great job and thanks for sharing . 👍👏
Big props to you man for the amazing job !! Looks sick ! I have a 2000 ek hatch with the same rust on quarter panels, ive only assisted on some body work once and was wondering how time consuming and difficult it really was ? if you could give some insight greatly appreciated !
This was my first body work job, so it took me a while, but wasn't too difficult. Just time consuming. I could probably do it a lot faster now. I wish I had a # of hours to give you but I didn't keep track.

You should have used copper weld through primer... on the welds...... under coating is huge no no... it tar based and hold moisture... sand blast it.grind it etc.... use expoy 2k primer to seal the metal then apply boddy filler and use regular high build primer etc... for feather edging it
@@6thGearGarage I'm redoing a bad body work job that came evident after taking the car through an auto car wash so I have to cut the quarter and redo it because it was all dented metal and they bonded over it
For some odd reason the EG always rust really bad worst then other civics dont no why tho I had an eg and had to full the hole left back quarter panel with Bondo no other choice as I don't have a welder or the right tools
Actually bought a similar civic last month for around 450dollars. Had a thought to try to do an amateur repair on the rust spots but after watching this videos I'm kinda scared to even try. Looks like a big job for a first timer. It's not as rusted as the car on this video but who knows what I'll find if I take it apart. It has also been painted mint green(used to be red) for some reason by the previous owner. Might just fix the easy spots and leave the rear panels alone. But who knows, it was supposed to be a project car anyway besides my main drive. Great job on your civic, tho. Looked spectacular if you compare to what it was.
It's definitely a pretty big job. Even after all the cutting & welding, there's still filler and paint... a lot of different stages that get easier with some experience.

Hey thanks a lot, I’m gonna use this guide to help me fix my car. What did you use to seal the panels after welding and what kind of rust inhibitor did you use?

It's true. Some cars have more rust even if there is the same model. My father had some Civic Aerodeck from 00 full of rust everywhere. My brother have the same from 01 and totally clean . Maybe they learned their lessons or they cure better the metal in different periods or factories. Or they use different kind of metal from different supplier

very nice job man, that rust sure sucks, now they wanna get rid of gas vehicles, so they use liquid salt, it really ruins our cars fast, what a shame, really like the finished project tho, hard work really paid off!
This both terrifies me and gives me hope. My '96 hatch has quite a bit of rust on the fender, but it looks like it might be much worse than I thought if it rusted like yours.
Nice work! I am looking into doing this exact job on my sedan. I am just not sure how to coat the inside of the welds on the lower dogleg of the quarter (narrow section that runs down into the rocker). There isn't any acces on the inside since the inner panel runs almost right agains't the outer that is being welded in. If I don't coat the inside of the welds at the bottom, will the patch rot from the inside?
You could drill some small holes from the interior of the car, maybe 1/2", and spray something such as Fluid Film inside the holes, than put some plastic body plugs over the holes. Once the interior trim is re-installed, the plastic plugs will be hidden.
Hello good day from Peru, I also want to repair both sides of my civic I lost them in an accident so I have nowhere to get a model, could you share the mold measurements please, thank you!
@@6thGearGarage yeah I have a 1994 Honda Civic DX and my back panels are really bad on my front panel seem to be perfect I don't know why these back panel is go bad or rust like that on these cars
@@Coffeeandghosts1258 It all starts with the spot welds. They're used all around the wear wheel opening. Moisture/salt gets to them and it's only a matter of time before the rust gets bad enough to create a bubble in the paint. By that point it's already worse on the inside of the panel than it appears on the outside. Also some japanese vehicles of the 80's-90's used lower grade / thinner steel than say a german car.
About to tackle this job with my father. Everybody online is saying just give up and scrap the car but like you I have a strong attachment to it and want to save it. Thank you for this video and your other forum posts

@@HyperGoatTheFirst I was thinking more along the lines of a Shaquiniqua in a clapped out ‘10 Impala or Charger.
First thing when buying a 90's Honda: Peel that rubber liner off the inner edge of your wheel wells. It traps water and causes rust.

Thanks! I'm so far behind on my own projects that I can't take on any new ones for a while.
Was the inner fender in the wheelhouse ever welded to the quarter or just adhered?
It was originally spot welded, which is part of the reason they rusted so much in that area.
Very helpful even with slide show 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Did you extend the inner fender to weld back to the panel?
I welded metal back in for any the fender that was cut out, but I used seam sealer between the inner fender and outer panel instead of tack welding to avoid any chance of rust in the future.
How much do you think this kind of thing would cost at a body shop for just one rear corner?

Do u know if hatch rear quarter panel fit on a coupe
It will need to be modified at the rear because the coupe is longer, but the wheel opening is the same.
Instead of rubber under coating on the insides of the quarters I would suggest a cavity wax to prevent rust.
Thanks for the tip!
what gauge sheet metal did you use for the panels you made?
I’m not sure, it was something I already had laying around. It was much thicker than I needed though.
Even if your super fast with Bondo like me it is still better to put in the whole panel if you look at all the time you spent with that seam you could have taken out the window and drilled the spot welds much faster.
