Hyundai H100 Right Rear Quarter Panel

Not automatically. The H100 sold in South Africa as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, and dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.

SA-market cars ran the 2.5 and 2.6 diesels as badged on the SA derivatives. The code stamped on the block is what we work from — the badge on the boot is not reliable on its own.

Often, yes. Dents without tears and surface rust can be pulled and refinished. Deep creases, a torn arch lip or perforated metal need a section grafted in or a used panel cut from a donor car. A decent body shop will quote both routes side by side — ask for that rather than accepting one number.

Because the quarter is welded, not bolted — it is part of the shell rather than an attachment to it. That is what separates this from a door or a fender, and it is why the labour rather than the panel drives the cost. On some derivatives it also carries the fuel filler neck, which is worth confirming on your own car before ordering.

We see it on older Getz, i20 and Accent cars, and some 2016+ Hyundais have shown arch corrosion too. Coastal cars suffer worst — a KwaZulu-Natal car and an inland car of the same age are not comparable here. Anti-perforation cover, where a car still has it, generally applies only to rust working from the inside out, which is not what arch-lip corrosion usually is.

It ranges widely, because a localised rust repair and respray and a full cut-and-weld are different jobs with different bills. We work with our SA supplier network and the Engine Finder Hyundai Network for used panels. Send photos with the enquiry — this is a job that cannot be quoted accurately from a description.

Usually. A crease stresses the paint, and rust starts where the paint has been stressed, so leaving it tends to turn a dent into a corrosion repair. If resale matters at all, a straightened and resprayed quarter protects trade-in value far better than the damage does.
