Hi guys, found some rust on my rear near side wheel arch, will post pics later today.
But wondered if anybody else had rust experience on audi coupe wheel arches, what are the chances of it coming from the inside, going to sand it back and treat the rust, next week when i get time i will take off what i need to to have a look.
Please bear in mind im a propa beginner

Quite common. Mine had some on the pass side, swapped the arch for another. 10 min job, bolt off bolt on.

oh i didnt realise it was that easy, but then you have the issue with colours. How much you think it will cost to colour match and spray a wing?

We are talking the rear wheel arch, anybody think i could just get away with treating it and spraying it for now till i have some more money.
You know how it is, being broke that is.

Here is a little i sanded down, you can see the off white where previous owner filled it in, no rust he bloody said!!

Just realised how poor those pics are, apologies for that was my iphone.

Ah sorry mate I thought you said front, my fault for not reading! No it's much harder to get the rear off, i'd go with repair.
