I was thinking about doing the rear lower quarter trim on my cherokee, i removed the bumper end caps and came across some rust holes. I was wondering if anyone could give me a link to see how this is done correctly? Thanks

I'm not sure what your question is, but I've been considereing fabbing a rear bumper for my XJ. I know that there are rust holes through my rear quarters under the bumper trim.

If I fab a bumper that will leave this area exposed, I'm thinking of making some patch panels out of aluminum diamond plate. I think it will be easier and cheaper than doing the body work and painting with factory color. The gold paint on mine is $90/pint. I can buy a lot of aluminum diamond plate for $90.
