    rust in my DC2 Type R



    Hi Guys was recently replacing the tail light gaskets in my car and thought after 12 years might be due for a little clean up and this is what i found. might be a good time for others to check for this as well not a lot holding onto that rear bar.

    Anyone else found any more rust ?

                My tail light bracket on my DC5S had more rust. Don't stress... if you're worried, do what I did and sand off the rust and spray away.

                    At first i thought it was just dirt on the black bracket as well but its rust or the beginnings of it
