   Hey Guys,
   
   Done some searching but not really found what I was looking for.
   
   Today I uncovered alot of rust from the rear drivers arch of my Saxo where it meets the boot floor, and there is 1 or 2 fairly big holes.
   
   Does anyone know of anywhere that sells a full arch panel or repair panel of will I just have to resort to patching it ...?
   
   Also when anybody elses has rusted have you had quite loud bangs when going over bumps ... it just you could hear the car make a noise when bounced up and down, but if pushed against arch it would stop .. which led me to uncovering the rust ... im guessing it would sound worse from inside the car?
   
   Cheers
   
   Tom

   could try citroen. iirc the pattern panel market doesn't make many panels i don't even think they make sills which is a common rot place. i'd just cut the rot out and patch it mate. dress the welds. some primer, stone chip, top coat of the colour of the car in hammerite and you'll never know.
