Hi,

Just about to clean up the surfice rust on the iner lips of the wheel arches and tips of the sills before it starts eating the metal. No welding involved, just cleaning it back to bare metal and repainting.

Was thinking of just using black paint instead of trying to find a match (it's Citron yellow at the moment) which probably won't be same anyhow.

Do you think this is a good move or do you recon it'll look rubbish?

Cheers

I personally like the blacked out look of the under carriage. I think black (flat not glossy would look nice if you did the entire wheel well surfaces both front and back. You can always use undercoating if you dont want to prep and paint all those surfaces. Just my 2 cents worth...
