Killer instructions will only do a portion of it. If you have not done metal work before you really need someone to look over your shoulder and help out. I hung both quarters, a taillight panel, both outer wheel houses on my car and that was the largest thing I've ever done but it's all coming out just fine and better than factory and what a body shop would do. One thing I have is time to do it and if I have to, take a break and come back at it fresh.

Some sites I have come across concerning panel replacement:
