Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Does anyone know if these just bolt off and on? Found someone in Kent that is breaking a black 6. So I'm thinking it might be easier to just replace the panel. Need the front bumper too
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012
As in the rear quarter? They don't bolt atall. Sure an angle grinder and welder would do the job though
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Cool
don't know if just getting the rust patch fixed and sprayed would be cheaper and less hassle
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012
Definatley less hassle.
Grind/sand the rust back. Rust treat it, red oxide primer, normal primer paint and laqcuer. Job jobed
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
I'll give it a bash and if I wreck it then no big deal, it's a project
thanks for the help Matt
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012
No worries. If you need a hand then most members on here are pretty clued up on spraying and rust treatment
Oh and feel free to rep me
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Hmmm wonder if anyone lives near me would wanna help.....
RE: Drivers side rear panel - samass - 23-10-2012
yep, what matt said. and black *should* be easy enough to match and blend in
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Oil-burner - 23-10-2012
Where abouts on the rear panel is the damage?
Pics if possible
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012
Looks to be near the wheel, judging by the welcome thread.
I'd lend a hand but I'd roller it

Yeah it's where Matt said

I've done my surface rust on my escort before and that was soo easy, so I'm hoping the pug will be the same. The rust goes further up, than the pic shows, as the paint has bubbled so would need to peel that away
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Niall - 23-10-2012
That looks a bit more than surface rust to me. Might be a case of cutting it out and welding a patch in. Before you go that drastic though, sand it right back and see if there is enough clean metal there. If so, just treat it, tidy it up and paint.
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012
Think Nialls right. Just cut and weld. On second inspection it does look pretty deep

You big gay rep whore you!
It's hard to tell from the pic how bad that is, so if you could get some better ones that would help. But as said, depends how bad it is. As if it's gone far enough the only way would be to cut it out, as it'll just spread.
If it can be salvaged then just take your time with the preparation, as the finish is all about the prep. Should be able to plend it in, just don't paint to a mask line, leave a gap so it can be feathered in. Then once the paint is hard enough you can get cutting compound and preferably a mop on it.
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Know in my luck it will need to be cut out
I'll google on how to blend paint in etc and give it a go. Projects are all about trial and error
Oh and I may have a gti rear bench for you, although I am a tad far away. Want know until I pick car up Friday x
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Matt - 23-10-2012

RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012

RE: Drivers side rear panel - Curt - 23-10-2012
Noooo, don't rep him!! He doesn't need any more
RE: Drivers side rear panel - JackLewis_Dturbo - 23-10-2012
i doubt that has gone through tbh, it would be alot more flaky than that... just attack it and youll soon find out!
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Too late curt I already did. Just away to see if anyone has a black bumper with the round fog lights

I went to see a guy about getting some paint done on my car and that's black yo - paint code P0XY so out came the paint suppliers catalogue and turns out there's 3 shade variants of P0XY so just be careful when you get it painted.
RE: Drivers side rear panel - lolsteve - 23-10-2012
just get a magic marker and colour it in, jobs a good'un
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Curt - 23-10-2012
There's 3 different types but that's why there's different codes - POXY, BEXY and P3XY I believe
RE: Drivers side rear panel - Nadine - 23-10-2012
I'll check the paint code before I start anything. Might just do all the hard work then get a body shop to paint it

We looked at P3XY in the catalogue as well but that only denotes the number of layers of base coat applied at the factory. Couldn't remember the third one when we looked.
