Just do the same as you did with the rest...
From top-view, select the four points, in a clockwise order, and press 'p'

oo-er. :? Can't say I'm too familiar with LW, but at a guess I'd say you either have some serious normal twisting going on, or the small couple of triangles that you have to the right of the corrupted faces is screwing the calculations.

You're better off doing the section again, rather than try and figure out what it is. BTW - try as best you can to avoid 3-sided polys. You're better off lofting edges from one row to the next so you keep mesh errors to a minimum by using quads. It'll be easier to avoid rippling, too.

sorry, I dont know much about Lightwave, so no secrets, tutorials to show you. I think you'll get over this hurdle though and maybe someday put out some high quality cars. Anyhow dont give up and keep going.
