Rear arch work - Jukie88 - 12-02-2013

Right some lady garden has done this to my pride and joy    

Can I fix this by just bashing it out as much as poss and fillering it ?? as I realllllly don't want to have it cut and welded :-(

may be easyer to find a replacment door in the scrappers and just fill the arch Wink

Don't think finding a champagne door will be too easy! Confused

If you intent on doing it , just beat it out best you can and fill it, the metal isnt torn atall is it?


RE: Rear arch work - HDIkyle - 13-02-2013

With it been such a small area would be easy to fill. Can always ise kevlar reinforceD fibreglass filler that stuff is rock hard you need 80 discs to get tho it and plenty off. Then it only needs a very light skim of normal filler on the top. How we reduce cracking on the subway train body joints

It's hasn't punctured the metal but it's very erm well looks hard to get straight enough to fill :-(                


RE: Rear arch work - jay5488 - 14-02-2013

The metal is badly stretched........ hours job to weld a new section in, or faff about for hours and have filler
on your car.......... no brainer!!!!!
