rio red?? damn, you had to pick the rarest color, didn't you?? that color is not only rare, but it only came on the 90-91s.. I've never seen a rio red 92 --ever, mostly cause i don't think they were made. I have, however, seen a 92-94 CLOSE to a rio red, but it might have been aftermarket paint, I'm not sure.
What happened? Rust, or did you get into a smash? RQPanels, from what understand are a PITA, because they're part of the unibody --welded on.
Good luck with that, dude.

Just wondering why it should be rio red since to replace a quarter panel you have to cut out the old one and re weld in the new one, then smooth it out, then body filler, then paint it all anyway?
