Sorry to ask this under this thread but I have a small bit of rust forming under the petrol cap where the arch meets the bumper, do I have a case as the car is an 05 or is it a lost cause ?Quote:

wow, I am amazed at how bad that one is. plenty of corrosion too it must have been cracked for a long time.
Is this still a weld up and reinforce job or are you going to be replacing larger sections?
90% of cracks will be covered with special plates ,other cracks will be custom fixed.in few comming days I'll update the thread .
And even very low mileage cars do crack ,think lowest one I saw was about 40k mls
Good thing the car came in to you for a check over and service, I'm sure the guy is annoyed in one way but happier in another. At least when repaired it shall be piece of mind for him.
More work done today ,all rust and under body sealant cleaned of and ready for welding works
The ends of double panels has some oem weld spots ,but they are very rare ,every few centimeters so i did extra holes in out side panel to get good weld between between them ,and some weld just at the edge .
few more with welded in all cracks and everything cowered in rust remedy ,left till tomorrow and plates to be welded on .
before and after
Words fail me here! Did the new owner not have it inspected pre purchase? Bit of a kick in the b@lls - bitter sweet, as it'll be perfect once it leaves the doors of Valdas :D
