The rust hasn't really done a lot of damage. Just deforming the metal and staining it. The metal is still strong.


Heres some pictures.

Sand down the rust and either have it painted or touched up. Doesn't look like that big of a deal.

I'd try and get those rust spots taken care of ASAP!! rust is like cancer. Kill it quick before it spreads.

That's why I am planning on buying new quarter panels. I mean why try to fight it off when you can completely remove it =).

Looks like half of my mods isn't going to happen this summer.

On the other hand I just got an phone call for a $15/hour job as a sales person with no quotas.

Cant wait!!!

Are you talking about the CS10 concave? I don't see why they wouldn't fit.

Those look an awful lot like Janik's rennens lol.

The second wheels are pretty legit, what are those?

They rear would be the only concern, it would be a similar fitment to the linea corse's and it's the same width/offset of your rennen rear wheel. Time to test fit the rennens on the 05

20's would just look too dang big on my car I think. I'm not slammed enough to pull them off....

You're starting to sound like me Tevi!

Rust literally is referred to as "cancer" in any bodyshop. There literally is ZERO ways of "getting rid of it" without replacing the entire metal panel its on. If you try and sand it off or even grind it off, it will only show up months later.

Rust goes through the entire sheet of metal deep within, and its almost as if the sheet of metal has DNA in it. Once it has rust, its literally almost impossible to get ride of.
