Already been a few years on the 211 and still totally fine, nearly a year since I did the CLK. POR15 is amazing stuff when applied following the proper procedure. I masked off, got the metal lip back to clean metal, applied metal prep, 2 coats of POR15 and finished with MB stone chip paint.
This is only surface rust with a few bits of light pitting I'm talking here, not serious rust/rot really eating into the metal. The 211 looked very similar to the OP's arches although obviously you never really know until you start digging...
