Ok so what did i expect for £200 a challenge i thought.

My new 1850 has major rust problems on the inner front end iv looked at welding over the welds but that will not do!!

Are the inner front end pannels avaliable?
i need part number 814535 but also the larger pannel above which i am worried cant be replaced with new?

I can not find a part number for this?

Any help appreciated.

The bits where the headlights go are available; and there are repair sections for the exterior bit that goes over the top. A photo of the rust will be really helpful so we can see which bit you mean.

Welding 1st both sills front inner arm right boot floor and rear inner arch then she will be stable im going to do a full respray myself - i want to totaly strip her down and rebuild, at least the front end, subframe, new disks shocks etc:
