rust problem :0

[Filipino91]

so this is my first, car. have no experience on workings on cars. but can someone help me how to fix my rust problem before it spreads any farther.

Bondo and rust-oelum coating on both sides.

[deevergote]

No.



Cut out the metal and weld in a patch panel. Then repaint it properly, covering all exposed metal.

Bring it to a reputable body shop...

[deevergote]

That would be the best advice. The most expensive, but the only way to guarantee the best results.

[Filipino91]

estimating, how much would it cost?

[deevergote]

Somewhere between $100 and $3,000. For a more detailed estimate, you'd need to take your car to a body shop and have them look at it in person.

[Filipino91]

lol i hope it would just cost me like around $100, i definitely dont have $3000 to spend.

[CB7H22Los]

for ex. some body offered my friend 350 for just one side in the same spot...but this is fl...it all depends on who you know or just finding a good shop..

Damn Deev, thats a bit excessive isn't it? Considering that if the pic accurately depicts the size of the problem it shouldn't be much to solve, I know your just preparing him but damn man give a guy a small ray of hope. Lol, then again maybe thats just me asking for hope since his rust issue is quite small in regaurds to my own death star sized rust problem. cry:

There is absolutely no way to give a good estimate for rust repair from a single picture on a computer, especially from somebody who does not do bodywork for a living. The OP needs to go to a shop, not an online forum.

I follow what you said and I know what you mean but notice I said "if "it accurately depictes the state of the car. Yes it may be one pic on the net but my statement leaves opening for it could be what we see or worse and that's all I was trying to point out. So while your statement is right, mine was just geared toward deev's experience and what his thoughts were. Im sure at some point you guys have had to get some repair work done right?

thx guys, i end up not cutting it out and wielding a metal sheet, i just grind all the rust out then got some spray that prevents rust from coming back.
