I had arches done on a cavalier I used to have, cost me 150 pounds each side to have new ones welded in/blended and painted, but have heard of quotes from between 200-500 for the full job, just depends on the company really

Hiya Smiler :D welcome to the zone.
Regarding your rear arches ive just had both mine replaced, and the job
was first class, i paid Ԛ£450 cash jobs and it took the guys 3 days.
I would totally reccommend them to anyone and will be using them again
shortly for some touch up jobs around the rest of the car.
