Bojmobile 0 Posted January 25, 2004 I've noticed some slight rusting :mad: on my back driver side wheel arch and wanna sort it before it gets out of hand. Trouble is that my car is Dark Burgundy Pearl and the paint match will be difficult and cant afford a full respray - any tips to sort it before it gets out of hand?

vr6storm 0 Posted January 26, 2004 u could always try and get your local bodyshop to do a "localised" repair to it...........should only cost around £200-ish at the most........and they should be able to mix your paint up too........even though VW have discontinued it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted January 30, 2004 HAlfords did my last batch of paint, they mixed it from the paint code, and the match was excellent :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
