    Well after 500 miles of having my RS I get a chip! 🙁

    Lorry just driving by me opposite way kicked one up and hit the lower rear drivers side door! Went with a right bang!

    I sent a picture to Autoglass body repair just to see how much they would do it for! £189… On the driveway.

    Is there a touch up paint available for my to do it??

    Just a tip try using a cocktail stick first to dab in the paint, warm with hair dry (not hot) before you put the clear coat on.

    and give that car a wash !



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    I bought the touch-up set. Why are there four pots? I can understand that I need the paint and the lacquer but what are the other two?

    I found one on the driver side door whist washing last week too. Looks like it’s down to the base coat, not metal.

    Considering getting a clear bra on the doors as I have one on the front and absolutely no stone chips on the front after 6K.

    With the roads as they are, paint damage is an unfortunate eventuality. I just grab a £5 Halfords kit and paint it in.

    no chips on the body yet, just a few white pin head chips on the black forged alloys, no worries there though. I got a fun bonnet bra for extended motorway usage just to look an utter tool…

    I will get round to fitting the mudflaps soon !
