I hv a 2008 Dodge Ram. Noticed rust above the rear wheels. With no body repair experience how hard is this to learn to repair? What tools required? Or would you suggest I take it to a body repair?

I'd like to learn this but same time don't want my truck to look like crap

Your best option, cut out the metal, get new arch panel, paint back of it, weld new in/ fill/primer/paint/clear.

If you never done it before let a pro do it, also ask if they can drill holes inside so the water and **** that causes this typical issue to drain out.

Otherwise if your going do it I would debate flares just incase it comes out bad.
