my left side rear arch has got a bit of rust surfacing!
is it better to buy a new arch or pay a garage to sort it out?
how easy are arches to fit? cheers

the fronts are bolted on.
The rears form part of the side of the body shell.

Welded to the bodyshell in 3 places, top, back and cill. Also the outerwheelhouse is probably going too, it's welded to the inner wheelhouse and tacked to the wing support.. take it to a bodyshop..
