Inner Rear Wheel Arch

[Graham Filmer]

Could someone post a photo/guidance on how the rear inner rear arch should look where the rubber bumper mounts through on the side of the car (or indeed if does come all the way through)?

Both rear wheel arches and all the surrounding on mine have been attacked by the 'tin worm' and I am busy fabricating repairs, but I'm a bit stumped on whether the mounting point goes all the way through or not ( I have yet to source the rubber/bolt mounting piece that attaches to the near side and offside bumper quarters so can't yet use them as a guide).

The outer skin has the requisite hole, but there is no inner skin left and it is this that am am going to try and fabricate.

Hoping someone can help!

Right back to the freezing garage and weld splatter!

It's ok as long you don't burn your shirt with all that splatter.

Especially when it's on.

(I managed to transform a polo shirt to look more like a net in couple of weeks welding under a bay window van. )
