Hi all,
I am a new member to the forum and I am in the process of buying a Clio Williams 1.
I'm aware that it needs the wheel arches replacing (which I plan to have professionally carried out), but after doing a quick internet search I found that the 2nd owner had posted on this forum when he was selling the car. One of the images that he posted clearly shows the drivers side arch before any repairs which was quite badly corroded. by the way, these arches have been "repaired" but not very well as the repair is obvious and starting to bubble through already.
I'm looking to ask any knowledgeable members the following questions;
1/ Looking at the extent of the corrosion can this be properly repaired without replacing the full quarter panel?
2/ Would anyone have any idea about the potential cost of a proper repair?
3/ Does anyone have any recommendations of a body repair and paint shop who have completed quality work on members cars?

sorry to be asking for help and then making you work for it, but I would really appreciate any advise anyone can give me,
Cheers,
Phil
