Upon inspection, I've got a little more than the usual crusty arches and am now looking to have both rear arches replaced and the last 6" of the sills.
I'm hoping as I've caught it early that this won't be too expensive. Does anybody have ideas as to cost?
Ben.

I'm down South though, so everything is about 30% more than Bradford, unfortunately
Still a little better than expected, though!-

£300 for both arches supplied, fitted and painted.
Plus a small patch on the sill below the passenger rear door. Should look mint!
(They're not bad at the moment, but I'm being preventitive here!!!)

I'll grab some of the damaged areas tonight (There's quite a few!!!)Envoy CDX wrote:Keep cracking on with it Ben. Pics?
Then as and when the work gets done, I'll update through the whole process in a different thread.
It's a dear old experience, but at least it's not too rotten underneath, it's all visible rot!
