Hand made in steel. Composite rear qtrs never found their way onto the WRC cars until S11 I believe.
This is exactly how they were back in 2001/2002

MOAR!!!!!!
99% of the metal fabrication done now on her rear flares and tubs. Next job will be snagging and rear bumper alignment before laying up the rear doors.

Cheeky mock up using an S9 rear door looks promising.
Daves now got the painstaking task of making the rear doors flares & returns from scratch, good job he's not bad at the metal lark.
Can't use the doors he already made as the S9 onwards used wagon rear doors with a higher latched strike pin. This allowed for larger wheel clearance when the rear wheels were bought even further forward on the S9 onwards. As it is the S7/8 brings them further 15mm to standard.
