So, here's the topic I've been dreading.
Subaru has never been good at rustproofing the quarter panels (not as bad as Chrysler though ) my dog leg is beginning to rot on my 05 GT Wagon, it appears that i'm one of the first to have this happen, and chances are you'll have this happen too in the future if you own a Legacy Wagon.
What should I do to repair this? I'm capable of welding in a quarter panel myself, the problem is, I don't need an ENTIRE quarter panel, and that's all that I can find. I just need the dog leg with a few inches into the wheel arch due to how far back the rust tracks internally. There has to be something I can do about this, I want to stop the rot before it advances more and consumes important structural components.
If anyone has tackled this at all please post your advice here, I'll love you forever if you do.
