Who did the quarter panel replacement? Seems like a poor repair....
Thanks for all the great feedback, took it back to the original repair shop that did my left quarter panel ( eventhough both quarter panels taillight pockets are leaking) and got them to both knock "up" the metal trunk weatherstrip gap so it meets the trunk now AND use that rubber sealer on the outside and inside. They were really nice diagnosing and trying to find all the leaks for 2 hours and paid them $50 even though they weren't responsible for most of them. Also the yellow grommets in the pictures that hold the bumper were leaking some water and they completely cover it up with rubber sealer lol. No more leaks! Last thing left for me to do is reseal the weatherstrip and use some touchup paint
