removed the black plastic trim on the sides of the car, and found 3 guite large spots of rust, so thought id have a go removing all of the rust i could see.
one dremel tool, 3 hours and 2 rust holes later ive removed the most of it, and found one small rust hole and one bigger.
but it looks better, even thou it got 48 differnt shades of white on it now :lol:
will take some pictures when it is light outdoors
