Quarter panel rust repairs
The work has started !
Dismantled the mudguards, side garnishes and the rear bumper.
The cancer has been caused by missing "arch protectors" and torn mudguard. There was quite a bit of dirt on the wrong side of the plastic inner liner (mudguard in Subie terms).
The visible damage is actually easier to repair than the inner section....
So, the inner panel has rotted first, outside in, then when that has "gone thru" the outer panel has started to rot (from behind). The rearmost corner next to the bumper is naturally different - it's a single panel.
Anyone with "bubbles" in these areas - take the mudguards out and inspect before it's "too late".
