So driver & passenger side wheel arches are done! Now just some small rust fixes left

Removed outer & inner wheel arch until there isn't a single spot of rust left



Reacreate inner fender & give it some paint



Weld in wheel arch (which is a Mazda 323 arch that I made 5cm longer and recreated the bottom parts myself)



Subframe goes off



And taken apart



Grind it to bare metal



Epoxy primer it



And make it shine



Also replaced the worn bushes and pushed in some new bearings (what a pain to find them )



Small difference





Also did the same welding on the passenger side (and a bit more since it was even worse than driver side.

Seems like the previous owner had already 'repaired' it







But hey ... there I fixed it






Again cool before - after pic





Panoramic view on the inside




Scrape of all the dirt and anti-stonechip layer and grind down all the rust spots to bare metal, providing it with some neutralizer and paint. Almost ready for a new coat of anti-stonechip
