Anyone have any pictures of the quarter panel end caps for a 68 charger? Need help as im doing quarter patches and im trying to see how they line up with the edges of the quarter panel.

If you dont have them, I suggest you find yourself a pair before starting the cutting and welding.
They are of some good help to fit the patch panel.

Oh btw, are you using the discontinued AMD patch panels? dig up some extra patience with these since the fit is far from ok. but if you do some tweaking they fit not that bad at all

NOS is nice, turbo's are neat, but when it comes to Mopars, there's no need to cheat...

Thanks six-tee-nine I have them, i was looking for some detail pictures of how they match the contour of the quarter panel. The panels im using are the AMD quarter skins not the complete patch panels. I have researched them and it appears a pie cut will be neccessary, not sure if you are referring to any other issues but if you have some links to some install tips that would be great!!

tan top

do you mean the lower rear quarter to rear valance end caps ?

Ryan explained very well wath the problems are with the AMD quarters. I also used the AMD quarter patches and the problem is the same.
I also had to mess with the weel well opening. I had to cut a piece out of there so it would fit better.

This is my thread where I also have pictures of the pie cut. unfortunatly I did'nt take pictures of the weel well tweaking...
