Happened to mine after removing the undertray and forgot to put the edge screws back in to hold them ! The wind gets over them and forces them downwards into the road. Luckily I spotted it before it ripped the liner off above it! Moral of the story ..... check and double check!

Took Kims door cards off, sprayed the chrome bits a better colour. Cleaned the plastic parts, will do fabric tomorrow then fit the cards to Mo, who is cardless cos her cards are going into Kim (mo is changing from smokestone interior to sandstone). . . . . finally

Fortunately I've managed to find something solid to weld too
Before After Well after a bit more dressing, I'll make the patch, and flash up the welder, needless to say I didn't bother to book the MOT Brian |

That's some mightily impressive rusting going on there, looks like someone covered it with some plop and let the tin worm crack on with it underneath........... Nice!
