), and give the front mount a miss, the joys of the MY98 car is that you cant map the ecu so you have to replace it with an aftermarket one and have that mapped, costs a fair bit more that way Tony
PS, drivers side door? has that had paint before??

Your going to need to get those rear arches sorted asap if you dont want to be replacing the rear quarters (not cheap, circa 1k from a dealer unpainted or take your chances from a scrappy), probably cost you about 4-500 quid depending on how bad the rust is (it may not look much but more than that and your going to be replacing metal ), and give the front mount a miss, the joys of the MY98 car is that you cant map the ecu so you have to replace it with an aftermarket one and have that mapped, costs a fair bit more that way

my type r had far less bubbling and the guy needed to go to bear metal 2 inches above the arch, in the end I just had the full panel resprayed on both sides 
and I also had the roof and boot done at the same time, set me back 700 notes for that and I had discount
