Rear wheel arch repair around West London???
The rear wheel arches on my classic 4 door are rusting, does anyone know of some where around West London where I could get them done. I'm looking for a recommendation and an idea of how much this is going to set me back.
Seems to be a pretty common problem with the old classics.

Cost you £600 a side for a decent job, £350 the for the new subaru pannel and the rest for paint. Any less and i would worry if it was a correct job. Some places will rub the rust back and paint over of cut the rusty parts out! But if you can I would remove and replace

One of my arches is rusty, i rubbed it down to metal, rust came back
It needs cutting out, wouldn't buy whole new panel though, i can get hold of some repair panels for fraction of the price, but still cheaper to get body shop to make a piece metal to fit
