    Aligning/Rehanging doors

    This is probably the worse I've seen and it's on a mates car down here the door drops around a full inch and a half after opening it so much so his Qp is dented and squashed in so the door can open Never seen a xe like it all 4 doors have completely gone like this
  12. The paint is mixed with iron oxide and washed down in a acid with proper prep an undercoating the only thing that rusts is the paint local paint and panel shop owner did this to his own car as something different a lot of work in it but looks amazing close up
  13. There is a better way where the paint is the only thing that's rusts very clever local Bloke did it I'll put some pics up tomorrow
