[QUOTE="josephlauby, post: 3690159, member: 74572"] Not too bad of an idea. How long did that take & how much was it when you did it?. My personal initial idea was to cut out the rusty part & get it cleaned. Replace with a custom cut out piece and weld it back with anti-rust, etc done accordingly. But have to get it painted if not the welded lining will get rusty. Then even more holy shit... Bump: Serious?. Thought Proton is a national car & half-cut shops should have tonnes of goodies for it. Have quite a tight schedule. Must go search around Penang for workshop to inquire. My current foreman is good. But he is making his stand on changing the whole roof & bonnet which could sum to RM1500++. Not the amount of money I wanna spend now on my car. Well, standard full body painting will be around RM1k estimated. Bump: In the 1st place, how does the bubbles which leads to horrible holes on the body starts?. I know the weather and all. But what causes it to emerge?. What I have on my mind : 1.Bird shit(zzz). Didn't wash off and the acid sips into the paint?. 2.Bad paint work. Got micro air bubbles trapped between car body metal & paint layer? 3.Super miserable Malaysian weather. Damn hot sun then bloody long heavy rains. (HOT & COLD). So the metal expands & retracts causing microscopic gaps?. [/QUOTE]
