Rusted rear arches
OK so it's time to do the rear arches on the classic.....no surprises there then....
After googling and searching on forums I have some questions....am fairly average to good at fabrication and welding but certainly not professional.
1) Have been looking on ebay and found these repair panels and wondered if anyone had experience with them.

Are the decent profiles and decent metal, have had panels in the past that are just so thin.....
2) I've been reading a lot that front wing profiles reverse into rear fos--->rns and visa versa and how much time would it save from fabricating my own from a £20 sheet of sheet steel.

Have ordered some up at that price and will take some before, during and after. I know a lot have used front arches but for £40 a side youd do well to get a decent 2nd hand wing and a lot more work to cut what you need.
Cheers for the help, made my decision easier
