I got to have mine replaced as well.

The bodywork was meant to be sorted earlier this year and the arches 'repaired' but they resemble the shape of a 50 pence piece!!!! Not happy!

Just going to get new arch sections and get them fitted and the whole car painted again.

Once you're done, spray some sealer in the arch inners so they don't rust from the inside out. You have to take the fuel flap off to get in there.
