#1: Rusty Bonnet Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Aug 27, 2011 8:29 am ---- Noticed the front edge of my bonnet has gone quite rusty, bought from ebay stating already primed, previous original factory bonnet never went rusty on the front edge, a bit concerned of getting new bonnet in case the same thing happens again, common problem?

#9: Re: Rusty Bonnet Author: Lowercase, Location: East SussexPosted: Sat Aug 27, 2011 10:47 am ---- could be common, my tailgate has a couple specs of rust under the boot strip, and a small one under the glass. irritating as it's another part to add to my list of bits to respray.
think peugeot just use liquid thin paint?

Must replace it soon but will be buying from a scrapyard then can see it first... Quite liking the idea of a carbon bonnet but fail to see OH going along with that haha
