Default wheelwells

On my 03 dakota both of my wheelwells are rusting bad. One all the way where I have a 2x3" hole. Does anybody sell new wheel wells? Or is it much more than just welding or sealing in some new ones. I called one bodyshop and he would not even give me an estimate to fix. "Lots of custom fab work" was the response. Looks like a easy fix, anyone replace theirs? Had fixed? Cost? Thanks rich. Thinking about buying some steel stock and boxing in some new.

Super cheap way is to POR15 them and throw a set of fender flares to cover them.

That's what I did! $150 all in.

But I have seen wheel well cut outs on eBay that you weld in. If my memory serves me correct they were around $60-80 each.
