Car cancer
-
my rear arches are really bad, bubbling and splitting, anyone got a cure or is this terminal??
-
get rust cut out and new arches extensions welded in. Good excuse for a slight wide arch extension id say !.
weird how some mx3 rust really bad and some dont have a drop on them!
-
yup, Cutting it out is the only way, it's like nuking it from orbit.
It's the only way to be sure.

Ah the old rear arch rust that ALL Jap cars seem to suffer from. I'll have to get mine sorted next year as they seem to have bubbled up more since I got the car, I suppose living a stones throw from the beach hasn't helped the case too much :roll:
-
and what sort of cost would it be for cut weld and respray do we think?
