Evening All I have recently brought an e30 325i 4 door. The car is sound except it has a significant a out of rust on both rear arches. Can these be replaced? As the rear arches seem connected to the main body of the Car? Or wold new arches need to be welded On?

Many Thanks!

Adam.

You can buy replacement rear arch sections that will require cutting out the old and welding in the new.
