Rear door shut rust help
« on: April 09, 2016, 11:31:55 am »
Hi all.
Right so I have noticed that my inner rear door shuts have started to rust from the rubber rubbing the paintwork. I will be hopefully getting this painted on Monday or Tuesday depending on how busy we are at work.
Thing is there's no point getting it painted and then have the door rubber rubbing the paint again but I did see on here somebody posted this before and that they managed to get a clear decal to cover where it rubs....... But I can't find the post and I can't find the p/n for the decal.

Here's the pics of where it is. If any body saw the post can you send me in the right direction please cheers

No worries, I think it was either matto or maxitrol who had it in their build thread.
I got a set in my garage that I haven't fitted yet so got it from there iirc they are on back order.

Iirc it was a blue car I saw it on so must have been matto. I will have to order them Monday and maybe cover it with something until they arrive or just take the doors off  :signLOL:

It's the rubber causing it?

I figured it was from someone slamming the metal seatbelt clip in the door chipping some paint!

They're defiantly worth getting mate. Better than keep repairing the rust  :happy2:

My back doors don't have much use yet so I haven't noticed any rust yet. Just trying to prevent from happening. :happy2:
