Am I up for big $$$$ to fix this?

I have some rust spots just above my rear flared guards where the tyre has rubbed under the guard, heated up the metal and the paint has flaked off

There are two of these ugly rust spots forming, approx 4" in length and 2" in width

Can you give me some idea as to how much you think I'd be looking at to have this fixed?

I seriously need stiffer torsions to minimise squatting under hard accel.

Which flare, front or rear?

What color is your car? Custom color or factory?

Must be rear based on this quote.

The rust spots usually dont get any bigger but if you repaint the guards the tyres will just rub underneath again and cause the same blisters / rust spots. the rubbing doesnt seem to come from squatting but rather how hard you push in the corners.
