To answer you question - I have just spoken to him. From the horses mouth -
Repair panels suitable for Impreza gc8.
These are 1.2mm thick and don't flex.
Outer Arch repair panels are 47.99 per side or £90 a pair plus postage.
Inner arch repair panels are £42 per side or £78 a pair plus postage
These are universal so need fettling to be perfect
Repair sections of Sills are £68.99 per side or £130 a pair plus postage.
will be getting these made into smaller repair panels for those who don't
need a full size Sill
Full Rocker panels (Include door insert plates) will be £89.99 each or £170 a pair plus
postage.
Postage seems to be about £9.50 - UK mail next day

I've just put my rear struts back in and I didn't notice any flaking etc., but my rear arches are definitely rusted. Lets say worst case scenario, what would my options be? and what estimate cost? there's no timescale on this.
Cheers for any info

This is a shame!! Especially as he told me they were working on something to replace right up to the shock turret, guess that won't be happening now.

750-850 a side depending on how bad they are. Mine were pretty bad but apparently not as bad as some for the age of the car.
They fabricated new inner arches and they look stronger than the originals so hopefully it should last another 17 years

Left hand on mine isn't bad, and right is worse buy only outside. Was quoted nearly grand for both. Insane amount. As another guy quotes me £150 a side.

The thing with bodywork is that you get what you pay for. £150 a side might seem reasonable but then you will find in a year or 2, the rust is back.

Agree and won't be going for that. It needs cutting out. But still nearly s grand is insane. And that was me supplying the new arch for one side. I spoke to one guy who does body work and he shocked at the quote.
