Where could I buy a rear quarter panel for a Nova?
How much would I expect to pay? Some dozy bint drove into the side of my mates XE.

SEL-Imperial will do a patern for about £30 odd.
Vauxhall will do a genuine for about £50 odd.
SEL Imperial panels are copies and don't fit very nicely so the money you will save will be spend on chopping it up to fit it properly. Then whne you're done it probably wont look 100% right.

Rear quater. I'm guessing the prices slightly but an educated guess because a genuine front wing from Vauxhall costs about £45...

So you need to replace the rear quater panel. If the C pillar is damaged then you need to see if it's repairable. If the arch is damaged then you need to see if thats repairable. If the rear panel is damaged then you need to replace that too.
The rear quater just comes as that, all you get is the panel up to the bottom of the window that you weld in place.
What exactly is damaged on the car?

Imagine the corner ofa Yaris has rolled into the side of it at walking/jogging pace. That sort of damage really. It has just damaged the rear beam and quarter.
It's folded in a bit, just tried to pull it out. Would need a new quarter though.
Reshelling isn't an option.

I have a feeling Vauxhall won't have that part anymore.

I never said they were from Vaux. Just stating that a friend got 2 quarters for a car practically the same age as a Nova, so Nova ones should still be available.
