I had someone put new quarters n wheel houses on my car. He messed up the right side above the wheel it sticks out about 1 inch. He was talking about cutting the wheel house n push quarter in than weld wheel house back together. I dont think this is right way to fix it. Anyone have any ideas what happen n how to fix it right.

the well house has two parts,, inner and outer.

From your description I assume it's Pushing the lip out in that area ? Is the outer wheel house sitting in the wheel lip opening flush and complete.. IMO my first attempt would be to drill out the spot welds along the wheel well opening.. I then would fashion by welding or screwing in a way to apply leverage and pull/push the wheel house in towers the frame.so much depends on seeing what exactly or where he Messed UP ? Dose the trunk lid fit ?
How about the old trunk floor to the inner wheel house ?

The trunk floor is new all the braces r new.Put it this way from the doors back its all new.On the left side side the trunk brace is flush with the inner.On the right side the brace is about 1 inch sticking in.The trunk lid fits nice.I think the wheel housing lips are flush.
