Welding footwells

Post by DrGonzoPOW »

Has anyone got any pics of how they tackled rusty footwells ? Mainly drivers side corner. Going to have to do some welding soon and id like to get a good idea of the best way to go about it. Cheers

Havent got the front wing off yet to see the full extent, but just bodging around it certainly doesnt look good! (its on an E30 btw but shhhhhhhh!, i hate E30 zone..)
