Bit more maintenance on the go now, rust removal on the rear arches and sills. I'll get some work in progress when I do the other side. That's with a bit of grinder/flap disc action, Deox gel for 24hrs, Kurust and the brushed on high zinc paint. Hopefully get it smoothed and painted red this weekend :)

Hopefully it will last a bit longer, it is getting a bit "crunchy" at the back though :(

I'd like to merge it with an S15 spec R, but at

Well it's red again, just waiting on some G3 so I can polish out the dull patch between new and old. Not perfect up close, but good enough for me :)

Yeah, painted the red outside using Nissan paint, then borrowed Matts garage to add the clear. Took 5 coats to get the clear on, kept getting runs and having to let it set and rub back to spray again. You can still see the runs hence why I say it's not great up close :)
