9" Tall Rear Body Corner Patch

[goleafsgo_12]

Hey guys, I'm looking for the tall corner replacement panels for a 30/31 roadster. I have found one site that sells a 9" tall replacement,

They are $130, 2nd line down from the top. Are there any cheaper ones out there, or is this the norm? The standard 5" tall ones are about 2" too short for my rear quarters.

"Ryan, you can rest assured you will not find anything out there that is any more cheap, --or inexpensive!! Quality & fit costs money!! Do you have the capability to make the 2 additional inches yourself?

Ah really? They are a poor fit? Basically, the guy before me felt compelled to replace the section with a proper panel, however the proper panel was 2" too short, so he added some galvanized sheet metal between the 2 parts, hammered it into a relative shape and then tacked it everywhere. The 2" might be tricky to do in this situation.. However, these 9" tall pieces, you don't recommend? They are kind of expensive and I don't want to just throw money away.
