So before I wrap I need to sort out any rust on door frames. I have a new rear door as per earlier in the thread. The passenger door needs a slight repair, and the drivers is good so set about treating it before it does rust.

First off, Strip it down and apply rust treatment paint



Removed the old lower weather seal, new ones ordered.



Coat of black paint



I'd also ordered some 51mm silicon hose, to replace the pretty rubbish oem rubber ones, that were showing signs of splitting. They just need cutting down to size..



Fitted on





This also turned up

I can understand it's easy to act the hard man over the Internet, however I'd like to see how you act if you had a bonnet strike pin sink into your hand

I'm glad it doesn't look much now means it's healing nicely
