Hi,
Can anyone please help?? I need to somehow locate an o/s rear quarter panel for my 2000/W Fiat Punto Sporting 3 DOOR (Broom Yellow) - not that the colour matters!! Cant seem to find any on Google search and someone previously found one via www.nicecars.co.uk but currently none in stock. Appreciate any help and thanks!

This was recently discussed on the Punto section. The common opinion was that you will be lucky to get the panel because insurance companies do not like replacing them. Repairs to side impact damage usually involve welding wires onto the panel to pull the ding(s) out and then grind off and fill level. Its highly skilled work best left to the experts.

Rear impact damage is more of a problem because if the 3/4 panel is bent the crumple zone will have collapsed compromising the bodyshell itself.

One option might be to cut the panel off a car from a breakers.
