wheel arches

Post by cadetchris »

the inner lip of my rear arches has lost its paint and is in danger of rusting. owing to the strange colour primrose is, finding the correct colour is almost impossible, so what should i do?

Go to a specialist paint shop locally or take part of the car, they will just do a colour match to the nearest or mix one up for you. Google them :)

i did think about that, but these flanges are visable and it would be quite a contrast

Either match up the paint - or re-spray the car a different colour. I imagine the place that did your MGF would be keen to help out ? :roll:
