iow_corrado_g60 0 Posted February 21, 2006 hi everyone ive recently taken off rear wiper and replaced with a black bung however im not loving the bung has anyone flushed theres totally and would it cost alot at body shop! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted February 21, 2006 A few people have done this and it does look a lot better than having a rubber bung IMO I wouldn't have thought it'd cost that much as they only have to cut that section out and weld in a plate - being white your car will be nice and easy to paint too - well easier than a metalic anyway :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flusted 0 Posted February 21, 2006 wouldnt a bodyshop want to take glass out to prevent cracking from heat of welding? Ive smoothed mine over but used fiberglass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rarak69 0 Posted February 21, 2006 you are correct flusted, you would need to remove the glass for sure. i lucked out as i was replacing my hatch and shaved it before i put new glass in :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted February 21, 2006 Glass will probably need removing. Not sure how much mine cost as I had a few other bits done at the same time so didn't pay a huge amount of attention to the individual prices. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iow_corrado_g60 0 Posted February 21, 2006 for them to take the glass out of the back of the c will probably be quite hard wont it! as isnt it bonded or something does the glass just come out or would they have to sort of cut it out! if that makes sense Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted February 21, 2006 I'd imagine your gromet stands out a little bit more compared to mine iow_corrado_g60, on a darkish C you hardly notice it. Still would be nice to have it properly done :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
