Aftermarket Quarter Panels?

Hi, I'm just looking for information about aftermarket body panels. Do they exist and what's the quality like? I am mostly interested in quarter panels (I don't expect anyone is suprised) and maybe rockers, or inner (rear) fenders. I am hoping to find quarters cheaper than the 650-700 a side I was quoted at the the honda dealer (canadian funds). Thanks
P.S. the car is a 1995 civic si (canadian w/D16Z6, although it's no longer in the car)

Yes, the canadian SI is an american EX (2 door coupe w/sunroof). I have no idea why they would change the model for the country. It's kinda like how the 2002-2005 american SI is the canadian SIR. About the panels, I have the usual civic rot, in the rear quaters right above where the rear bumper attaches, and at the bottom of the front of the rear wheel well. It seems other civics seem to get this as well. I found on a site somewhere about rustrepair dot com and I think it had panels for my car, but I'm not 100%. I try looking for stuff all the time, the next option is I can get JDM quarter sections for 400$ canadian a side, no rust or nothing. apparently they are from clips that were cut, and the sell off the rest of the cars as well. I'm keeping my options open, but I have to do something pretty soon. Otherwise I might find myself driving an EK again. (hard to find untouched eg civics in Ontario)

400$ a side for jdm sides is probably a waste of money.. no like there is anything drastically different about the body styles. I heard you can modify the hatch quarters to fit a coupe. probably save you a lot of money!

www.rustrepair.com sell weld in wheel arches for your car, I would look into that. To bad they don't make them for the Del Sol, I'd be all over it. :(
