Default Rear fender patches

Does anyone know if rear fender patch panels are available for a 1999? It looks like 8 years of salt have taken their toll and I have some holes popping through. At this point body filler is not going to cut it.

alright GM sells the entire rear quarter panels from the door back to the rear and up to the roof. BUT they go for about 1200$ per side. couldn't find anything about patch panels, but the body shop parts guy wasn't in today so i'll ask him when hes back on monday.

In my opinion i would check out a body shop to see if they can cure the cancer, or the junkyard for the panel, or a piece of a panel.

If all else fails check out a few salvage yards. See if you can locate a '95-99 Monte with decent body sections where your car needs them.

If that doens't pan out, could um............. Lumina (sshhhh) pieces work?

Couch, thanks for taking the time to look that up. $1200 a side is pushing what the car is worth all together. I think I will hit up some junk yards and see what they have. Luckily I only need the fender arches, the rest of the car is fine.
