Inner arch rot

[toecutter666]

Evening all, does anybody know if you can get a rear inner arch repair panel? Just cut out my rotten arch to find the metal worm has eaten 3 inches into my inner arch
Cheers for your help

Pretty sure you can get the inner arch. There are two sections to the inner arch afaik (Inner inner arch and outer inner arch) if that makes sense, then the outer arch goes over the top (the wing part you can see)

Have a word with Zimmer on here

inner arches are still available from the dealers and are @ £60 a side for face lift cars. its possible to fit them complete without removing the outer quarter panels too, see my resto thread for tips (link in sig). theres also a current resto which im doing for bmwe30mtech which is having the quarter panels too so gives a better picture of how theyre welded on.

Cheers for the info guys, will be ordering some shiney new metal work this week, i'd better find the instruction manual for the welder .
Just looked through your thread matt and was really impressed, gives me something to aim for.
