Re: crack in quater panel/fender
Maybe take it by a couple of body shops and see if they would recommend replacing or repairing the damage.
Picture would help...

Re: crack in quater panel/fender
Has it every been repaired?
Could be that it was repaired and it has some kind of body filler and that is why the paint cracked because under is the filler has cracked.
I've seen this before, for you do know, take it to a shop and see if they have some paint gauge meter, if you can't have a reading then you may have a filler there.Comment

Re: crack in quater panel/fender
Another way to tell if it has body filler is to use a magnet. If the magnet sticks to the rest of the fender and not the area that is cracked, then the cracked area is filler.
