Just looking for a little advice. Such as what paint to use, sanding etc. I was installing to Cobb RMM the other day and I saw rust and it's really bothering me. The car has only been through one winter so I'd like to fix it before it gets worse.

Anyone else who drives in salt/snow have this issue? RodMoe?

Rust already? How many miles do you have on your car?

Just under 11000km or 7000 miles ...

Mine looks the same if not worse.
With 21000kms
I think I am going to just get it under coated soon

I have not seen that amount or aging yet and they salt the heck out of the roads here so I'll keep a look out I did go under the hood during the winter with WD40 and hit all the salty crud i could get too...

Any experience with this stuff? I hear it can be a pain.

Mix it well and use as much protection as possible. If it gets on anything it's not coming off.

That being said last time I used it I didn't think it was difficult to work with at all.

Thanks. I didn't realize how expensive it was and there's a lot of prep too. Probably not worth the small area I had to do. I ended up getting underbody paint similar to rocker guard. $4 vs $60 for por 15... Turned out well. I hope it lasts...

I spray everything I can with rubberized undercoating, and then spray matte black over the suspension bits each spring. Having a lift would make this job way easier.

Good to know. I wanted to spray everything but wasn't sure... I may get back under there and cover a few more places. But yes if I had a lift I probably wold have painted everything could.

What do you use for the rubberized undercoat? Por-15 spray can?
