Hi All, so it’s been a little while but the car is out of storage and back on the road! I’ve started to replace the seals however sadly the old ones have been hiding a very small amount of rust which I have booked in for repair locally - just on the edges, no holes thank god - that being said I don’t want to fully fit the seals until the rust has been taken care of. I have however taken a few pics to give you an idea of before and after - full pics will follow when I’m happy with the bodywork first and then fully fitted the seals. As you can see the old ones are well past best and are now pushing out the corner triangles badly so this fix couldn’t come sooner - the old ones have also split and now push out metal dust....I think I definitely made the right decision....some originals are on eBay at the moment at nearly double the cost, and they look like mine did 6 months ago....so it’s only a matter of time before they go the same way 😩. Anyway, would very much welcome your thoughts. Honestly at a distance you wouldn’t notice with or without the lines. Cheers
Sorry - haven’t fully pushed this one in place, so it will fit slightly lower but not much more
