I paid about Ԛ£250 to have my arch done including paint, panel, labour etc. i had a few other bits done so you might get it cheaper.
Just make sure when your getting quotes that they will be chopping out the old arch and the all the rust and not simply putting the new arch over the old one...which i have seen done many times.
