Fitting standard rear arches

[Paul F]

Can anyone offer me any advice on this? Need to replace both inner and outer rear arches on my 2 door mk2...got Hadrian panels (doh!) and it just looks like a nightmare...

 

Do the outer panels get welded on the outside or the inside of the original panel once you've chopped the old one out?

 

Should the panels fit as badly as mine do?

 

Should I have just bought Expressed panels?

 

Will I ever get my escort finished??

 

What is the meaning of life???

 

Why is it the only girls that fancy me are the ones i'm not very nice to?

 

HELP!

 

I'll put some pics up vsoon...

Always fit the outer arches under the panel they will fill in better,keep as much of the body as you can & trim the new panel down to fit, this keeps the weld near the arch, take your time welding,letting it cool befor doing more, if the arch is well rusted it may be best to do the inside one first !
