Rear quarter panel or front fender?

If the rear, then there are three styles. 1: 1975-1979 / 2: 1980-1985 / 3 1986-1993. Only difference between 2 and 3 would be small holes near the bottom of 3 for mounting the plastic trim. Never having removed the trim from the rear quarter panel, I'm assuming these holes are there, since they are present in every other panel on the car--someone who has had to restick that piece of trim can confirm/deny their existence. If they're not, then 1980-1993 should all interchange.

Rustproofing improved on later cars. It is worth getting one from the 90's if you can. In the junkyards here in VA, the 1988 and earlier cars almost always have rust, the 1989-1993 cars very rarely do.
