Rivet on and then fill the rivet holes but just leave the rivets exposed for a track car. I think it looks better anyway.

The simplest way of fixing it is to spotweld/pull the damage out and smooth it out with bondo. If the damage isn't too overwhelming anyways.

The oldschool professional way to do it is to measure(twice) and cut the rear quarter off, duplicate your process on a virgin quarter from another 240sx, and then weld the good quarter in place of the bad.

But either way, if you don't have the tools to do it yourself, your gonna pay big bucks.

My 2 cents on the coverup widefender job: you turn your car into a rice-bag-o-tricks....I just came up with that. Plus, only a dumbass will buy your car if you go to sell it...and dumbasses usually call you back with lots of stupid annoying questions.
