Cleaning up an eyesore
Posted: July 24th, 2011, 12:12 am
So when I purchased my MX3, the previous owner had put a bumper sticker on the trunk lid right by the key hole. Unfortunately, when she tried to remove the sticker, it took a huge chunk of paint with it, since then its been an eyesore to me every time I look at the back end of the car. Decided today to do something about it...

spoiler take off, used an old large towel as a drop sheet for the bumper/lights

little bit of rust that I found when I took the spoiler off

bit more rust, nothing major

closeup of the missing paint

window taped up, first coat of paint on

closeup of the spot where the paint was missing from, 2nd or 3rd coat cant remember

everything back together

all done... so SO much better.. lol
