1968/69 1/4 panels? cutlass/442

I think I know the answer to this but throwing it out there just in case...
Are there aftermarket full 1/4 panels available yet from the aftermarket? Did a quick search online but hoping I missed them
1968 specifically

Unfortunately not, only the crappy partial quarters.

I used the full skins on my 69'. I'm happy with how they turned out but they were A LOT of work.

Those are not "full skins". Those are partial quarters. Full OEM quarter panels include the door jamb, trunk gutter, and C-pillar up to the roof spot weld. There would be no visible welds other than the leaded joint at the top of the C-pillar.

This is what Chevelle full quarters look like.

I am in search for a drivers side q panel for my 72 cutlass supreme vert. Looks like lots of suppliers, and I am trying to find quality parts. I have a paper copy of OPGI Cutlass catalog. On page 130 they have shown 1968-69 Cutlass/442 Quarter panels. Part number for left, right, pair. Prices are about $230. Shipping is the kicker. I’m searching for something close to Iowa, where I can drive and pick it up. Shipping quote I got was for $275 for a $250 panel.

I do not know if they are skins or full like Joe has said.
