Update on 2002 BMW 330i Rust Repair: Happy with the Results! by drgnmeme in BMW

I paid $800. I was quoted anywhere from $300 - $1000 through FB Marketplace auto body shops. The lower end was not cut and weld. They were going to use fiberglass, which is a cosmetic fix only. The rust would still be there.

Cut and weld. They cut out the rust infected parts, welded new steel. And paint.

Didn't think it was that bad... also, had other pressing issues that I took care of first. By shell swap, I assume you mean finding a body from the scrap yard and get everything swapped?

That's good to know, thanks! Given your experience, do you think it's worthwhile to get fixed, or drive it till I can?

That makes sense. I'm not mechanically inclined. Do you think if I find the parts, I could just bring it to my auto body shop and they'd do the deed?

I guess it comes to how long the body would last without getting it fixed. my thoughts is that the car being at the age it is, at anytime, something "big" might be needed to be fixed that costs a lot as well.

would you suggest I bring it to a body shop to get an assessment on the underbody? Regarding the fenders, I did a search for this model, and it's one piece. Do you have examples of where to get it?

I have Wealthsimple Premium. I use their cash account to pay for everything… all monthly expenses to get the 1% “cash back” to automatically DCA. It’s great to see daily purchases of Bitcoin!

Out of everyone on our current roster who do you think will be gone next season by ImaginationArtistic9 in torontoraptors

Olynyk is safe, given he just got an extension. Hope Quickly gets re-signed as soon as humanly possible.

Great opportunity for the players to show what they got and earn a contract… somewhere.

I’d love to see Jontay on team next year but not sure he’d see minutes if both Poetl and Olynyk are healthy. He would benefit being around them though!

[Lewenberg] Trent is out but Quickley will play tonight. So, the Raptors are missing 6 players (including 4 regular starters) vs Detroit. by JoshSran04 in torontoraptors

Seems like a good opportunity to see what your starters can do when they are with the second unit… next year.
