Hes grinding out rust and patching it.

 

Do you have a link to your old post or any before pictures handy?? Ive gotta do the exact same thing to my car this year but I went and cut a whole wheel well out of a donor car last fall.

theres some more detailed pictures if you scroll down more.

 

Looks like it turned out pretty good, I had to do something similar to my car this summer. I coated the inside and outside with rust preventative paint (I don't remember the name, it's red and eastwood sells it), and then I redid all the undercoating in the wheel wells. Looks much better, and I can rest easy knowing my car isn't rotting away right under my eyes

Make sure you check the seam between where the quarter panel meets the wheel well too. I had really bad rust and rott all through there too

 

Ya, my wheel well seem was really rusted out and corroded. So i broke out the torch:rockon: and burned most of it out. This made it easier when i was wire wheeling it. lol im gonna buy 3m seam sealer for that.

 

My Iroc is 100000000x worse than those pics that you have in your other thread! But I still drive it

I could never do what you did... looks amazing! I'm just waiting till my car breaks in half
