Fixing Rust on W210
My 1997 E320 has rust on the right front fender: see pictures below. How may I fix it by myself? How much would it roughly cost to fix it in a body shop? Thanks!

Get a replacement fender and get it painted. Its not worth it to fix the one on the car.

how bad is bad? I have a few dots of rust here and there that I'll need to take care of sooner or later. I live right by the beach which doesn't help either.

That's not how it works.

He was just agreeing with desired_speeds and saying sourcing a used fender for cheap isn't hard to do.
