Tailgate Fooked

[Wolfie]

Im doing a full resto on my 3 and have been buying several items off here. Noticed that my tailgate is so rusty on the bottom of the inside, is this an inherent prob on all clios? Need to source a good one, whats my chances?

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers G

shouldn't be too hard to source a decent one, 432 monaco blue for williams 3, phase 2 required, speak to mat brown

yes it is common clio complaint, rust in general is

Not wrong... :(

Thanks, ye I know rust is a prob with them as I have found out whilst grinding the paint off the whole car! Thought the offside rear arch was salvageable until i took the paint off..............no chance, so now putting a new arch in.

The project started off as a simple job but the more i go into it the more particular im being, and it shows in the wallet dept!!!!!! But they won't make them again so it is worth every penny.

Thanks for the tips.

im sure my bro once said replacing a tailgate properly is a pain in the arse.

Depending on the sale conditions of my williams I will have a beand new never been opened tailgate and rear glass... would just need painting in your preffered colour.

Miles easier than sourcing a good one!
