My 100 has got a few rust problems which I had a quote for and the shop wanted to replace both front wings which I think is excessive so I'm going to do it myself. What arethe front wings like to get off, they seem relatively simple - remove the wheelarch liner, bolts along the top, one at the top of the door jam and inside the front under the wheelarch - am I missing anything. I intend to remove the wings, remove and stabilise the rust and then fibreglass behind the hole and fill from the front. I figure if I spend enough time preparing the rust then it shouldn't return.
Then I can turn my hand to stabilising the tailgate rust - just started to go along the seem at the bottom. Will scrape out the loose stuff, anti-rust it and paint. I have a new tailgate emblem to go on which will cover any slight imperfections in the outside.
Any help, any experience anyone.
