Rear Quater Panel Cut

[Moff]

Hey guys, just a quick question, l am thinking of cutting the quarter panel of the rear of my GQ, after speaking to a few different people up here in Cairns, and getting different stories of everybody that l ask.
What legalities are there with this modification?

I can't imagine any defect consideration mate? Go for it

Has anyone had this done by a panel beater? cheapest i can find in Townsville is $500, and yet in VIC its only $250-$300.
Im not doing it myself as my GQ is immaculate and i don't want to stuff it

Where did you find it in Vic for that price???
