Okay im going to be fixing the rust on my 94 coupe but the replacement panel are all for hatch`s. I know that they can work for a coupe but they are not the same. The coupe where the bumper meet the body angles down and the hatch does not.....now does this matter
here is what i mean
COUPE
Hatch

you mean the area below the tail light? you'll have to cut that part of the replacement panel off and not use it.

He's talking about where the pannel and bumper meet, the Hatchback is a dead straight pannel like this (-) where as the Coupe has a tiny bit where it angles down, like this (¬)
If that makes sence lol

maybe you could fab the piece you need, or find a quarter from a coupe that's in good condition. I've seen a coupe's quarters on hatches, maybe it'll work the other way around

and that's overpriced. there's a place in Cleveland that sells those same panels for $35/ea for the hatchbacks, $45/ea for the sedans. that guy probably goes down the road and orders them from the place, Mill Supply.
