Rear Quarter Panels
Does any company out there manufacture new rear quarter panels for our 3rd gens?

Where can I get these?

To an enthusiast...yes. To the average user...certainly not.

Coming from a crash repairers point of view, if it ain't welded it isn't on. Rear quarters are welded on in the case of ALL vehicles, bolt ons and clip ons will attract rust and are just plain dodgy.

If you notice in the video he specifically says "minimize" welding, not "eliminate" welding..

It means you could put it on yourself, then take to your favorite body shop and get a little spot welding done. Options.

Thanks all who replied. I'll keep an eye out. And thanks for the FAST link. They are a tad costly, so I may have to visit the junk yard. I'll check the clip on too.

rear quarter panel has to be cut off, so you most likely will have to ask/bribe them to cut one off for you. most junkyards dont allow tools like that
