I can chop whole quarters off and put a new one on if you wish mate,but sounds like you only need a run of the mill section cut out and a piece re-welded in,then filled primed and painted.this is what i do and am good at it too,i will try to look for some pics on our digital camera at work as just rebuilt a mini cooper and had lots of work in that,looks the bollocks now.or pm me your number and ill send you some pics via text,( dont want to come across as if im advertising the company i work for) pm if you want folks.
