| RE: Rust under the rubber trim
Found the same kind of corrosion under the rubber things on my truck. What a shock that was. She's due to go under the knife this weekend.
I ordered replacement panels. They're cheap enough, but looks like they'll be a pain to weld in....we'll see.
At the same time, I'm having back door patched up, and swapping rear left panel.
Dai's metal guy's a genius. |

The owner's name is Chris and they all have been doing this a long time. The highest quality work. Tell them I sent you.
