Rotten rear arches

My rear inner arches are pretty rotten so I'm going to have to do something about them. If I went to a garage to get them replaced how much should I expect to pay (not including respaying)?
However I'm considering replacing them my self as I have access to more or less all , has anybody on here done this? Got any advice or tips?
Cheers

I had mine done at Ԛ£250 a side, but that included spraying them.
The arches themselves are only Ԛ£26 each I think.

The actual outer arches themselves aren't to bad, I was just planning on cutting/grinding the rust away and then filling it.
However there's not much left of the inners at all, now I've found a few places selling the outers but not the inners, is this something you can buy off the shelf? If so where from?

The only place you can get the inners, is the Dealer. Approx Ԛ£60 per side.

I have replaced a few sets of wheelarches and to repair the inner arches i used the curved section of a front wing cut into shape..
