you mean grind and spot welding back? you should flip over the roof and see the massive corrosion on the other side. the dimple is just the surface but beneath the cabin section there's roots of rust connecting each other.

no.... got some experience with rust hehe... (old junk driver here tongue.gif ) when they repair this kind of issues (and not want to replace the whole roof) usually they grind it all back to bare metal AND check the underside.... in these protons (and some early Mitsubishi models), the adhesive causes this issues if the issue if only on the surface (it rarely is) they grind that area till they spot clean metal, otherwise they usually cut out the affected sections an weld it back on.... but this is only viable if its just a small spot which is affected

RM 700 includes part & labor?

The roof is a new set and original? Or second hand set from Kereta Potong??

Where is this body shop?
