The thread with the Hyundai has completely jumped the shark so I’ve started this one. I have a 1990 Honda Civic sedan that I need to have both of the rear wheel arches replaced (welded in, I can get aftermarket metal patches) and painted to match the car. There’s also a few small areas of rust bubbling up that need to be sandblasted off and then smoothed, primed and painted to match. This doesn’t need to be perfect, just good enough that the car will not need any more rust repairs for a while and it looks good from 40 feet away. Anybody here have any first hand knowledge of where to get this done? ---

The car is light blue. I’m not in that big of a hurry to get it done, I have to install a new engine first. ---
