Hi im sick of looking at the rust,so how much is a decent price to do both.Ive included pics.Theres a good backstreet bodyshop near me and ive seen his work-its very good.What sort of price do you think for each side?Cheers stu

400 for both I'd say. Depends though, have you had a quote ?

!Removed! idiot! I posted the same side twice. :( I Have altered it now both sides.Tiny bubble on drivers side.Stants no I haven't had a quote yet.

Haha I didn't want to point out that it was a duplicate, just get a few quotes see what you think and what kind if feel you get from the shops,

My mazda had sill/arch work done, took it to what I thought was a reputable bodyshop the work looked good but the metal used was so thin the sill started to bubble again after 12 months

Stants-youre to polite mate.I'll shop around next week,trouble is there's lots of rip off main dealers in this town who are charging £90+vat per hr labour! Robbing !Removed!!

My mate just paid 5oo on his sti

Wot the F**K! Im not paying that..If its that figure then that's remap money :(

My classic had both arches done just before I bought it. It cost £435 with a bit of touch up paint on front and rear bumper. I'm not sure how bad the rust was though.

if its that bad on the outside then its worse on the inner side!!

 

Depending how far they have to cut back, see if i got a pic in my phone what he sent me

 

another mate paid near a grand to sort his

first bit, just rubbed back

 

 

this is how much had to be cut out and rewelded inside and out

 

Went to the bodyshop today....£300 inc vat max.Hardly any work needed on drivers side,its mainly the n/side..But cant book me in for 2 months!!

Great stuff

Least it shop's that he's busy which is better than nothing I suppose. Have you done anything to try and stop it from growing ?

I'd maybe take the paint off the worse side and treat the rust then pop some zinc based primer on it. Least it will slow it down a bit

Good price that though :) 

Quite hard do real long lasting job as does need all rust metal removed, pre weld primers applied prior to new sections added & likes of epoxy primers used due due high corrosion area. Inner side needs treatment too.

Don't do bodywork myself & even in trade it hard get real quality, prices vary by 100% & big price not always the best work.

Always get some idea on warranty against corrosion return, seen to many rear arches on nissan & subaru with repairs that don't make 2yrs & that shocking really with modern paints & chemicals ...
