Any advice welcome folks
Looks like a b5 or b5.5 ? If so the wings are more than likely rotting from the inside out at the top of the arches anyway. May not be noticeable now but will eventually come through and need replacing.
If they are ok at the top of the arch I would have a go at patching up the bottom of those wings if it were mine. You'd need to grind down to bare metal though before treating, filling, priming and blowing it in. It would never be perfect but should last a few years if done right.
If it is a passat and looks like one you can get the wings replaced and painted under the anti corrision warranty if the car is under 12 years old
Good luck with that lol and I think VW will tell you it's 10 years with possible 2 years good will.
Yes I got mine done to but know a lot that didn't.its 12 years on the corrision warranty as my sister got both front wings replaced on her 2006 VW Passat last November and at that time her car was 11 Years and 8 Months old
Yes they check the paint depth and if it’s been painted they won’t cover it. I got a boot lid replaced under the paint warranty no bother at all.Something about if they have been painted before they won’t cover it was there not?

They’ll try anything to get out of it budThere's a tiny bit of bubbling under the drivers wing on my 2008 GTi, but the arches have been rolled and painted. Think they'll not cover it?
