The rust ran the whole length of the cowl. I think I paid around $400 to have to fixed. I would not have noticed it if I didn't replace my windshield. Also I replaced it b/c I knew I was going to keep the car for awhile and I have a daily so it car just sits in the garage right now waiting for more restoration.
Hey, I just saw one of your posts about your rust you had repaired on your windshield. After searching for awhile, yours was the only one that was near what I was looking for.
I have a similar situation as yours. I am looking at a 325ic that has rust in the similar spot. It is primarily going to just be a car to run around in. The whole rust thing just scares me a little.
About how much did you pay and was your rust spot all the way through the cowl or did you only see it when you pulled the windshield.
