Rusty Rockerz

what to do about rusty rocker panels, my 88 190e needs minor body work, a few small rust spots typical dents and dings.. but the rockers are sheist! The body shop quated me 900-1100 for tripe peal blak claer coat and all the exterior/facial rust.. to be fixed.... Howerver he said he would patch the rockers... will that work.. there pretty bad.. as aposed to getting new rockers.. installed.

and are there any side ferring kits or anything besides.. AMG kit for 190e>?
or somthing just chill minimal,, or aer new rockers the way to go?

Thanks.. totally newbie to benz forum.. got my 190e for 960.00 w/ 165K on it... sweet.. and it rides smooth..

thnx

You may want to check out the trunk as well. I pulled the lining out of the trunk and put my foot right through it (right under the rear tail lights). I had to weld it myself. Looks like you have some work to do....
