rust

Hi I've recently purchased a phase 1 mk2 clio and it needs new bumper brackets made up for it. Anyone have any reference images or know of available replacement pannels? Thanks in advance for the help.

Welcome to my 2005 Black Gold 182 track car I've owned since mid 2021. Some people see these cars as cheap disposable track toys, but I haven't been able to own/run a fun car before, so this little 182 has become my pride and joy. And then I found the rust... :oops: This winter I've replaced...

Hi all, First post so go easy!! Wishing to get into DIY, I replaced my pads and discs just under a month ago. The pedal feels fine and the brakes stop the car quickly enough, however there is a ring of corrosion on the inside edge of the disc (near the hub), which is where the pads aren't...
