Title: Give up and get a new boot lid?
Post by: Greg on April 25, 2012, 03:21:12 pm

I started stripping back the paint on the boot and found a some rust and a heap of bog.  It is probably easiest just to go an buy a new boot lid right?

yeah, i would, the rust has more than likely migrated from the inside.

With replacements as well priced as they are it is time to give this trunk the boot!

I ended up getting a new boot lid and was suprised at how reasonably priced it was.
