Arches done!

Paint repairs before hibernation

Not posted for a while but thought I’d put a few pics up of the work on the 320. Thankfully the rust on the arches was only on the surface, put some stone guard on the edges and packed behind the arches with wax oil! Picked some some amg wheels too, had them stripped and powder coated, really pleased with the results

Nice job !
Do tell us how those Falkens feel- they’re on my list of summer replacements....

You’ll have to wait John mate! Cars getting tucked away now unless we get a good day? Once the gritters are out, that’ll be it

Thanks guys!
Yeah, we’ll pleased! It’s like night and day looks wise with the fatter alloys on! Just a shame I’ve got to wait 4 months to start enjoying it again!!

Yes, mine stays pretty much unused over winter save for the odd decent dry day when the roads havent been gritted. In Summer with the top down it's fantastic !

looks good, i did my clk some 5 yr ago and i had to do them again this yr as i have been unable to stop small blisters from reappearing ? so i am only able to control,not stop it.. next time i am going to try some of that rust converter stuff..

That’s what its all about graham, roll on the sun!
Bought it at the end of summer so not had much use yet unfortunately but will make up for it next year! Hopefully make a few meets and fingers crossed a few European road trips!

Indeed, low effort and high return
