[QUOTE="tikkalover, post: 299657, member: 600"] About a year ago my 2010 Chevy Silverado with 93000 miles on started showing signs of rust above the back driver side fender. In February a paint chip the size of my thumb nail popped off. Every time I got in and out, I looked at that chip and rust and it pissed me off. Took it to the body shop for an estimate to get it fixed. Guy looked at me and said $2000. I about started laughing and asked why? He said the only way they fix them is cut the side off and put a new one on. Umm nope that ain’t gonna happen. He then told me to put fender flares on it. I said that’s just a band aid. So here’s how I fixed it two weeks ago. [ATTACH=CONFIG]44400._xfImport[/ATTACH] The guy at the body shop said to take the taillights out 2 or 3 times a year and spray water between the fender and box to get the dirt/mud out, because that is what makes them rust as they never dry out. Why did it post 2 pictures?? :mad: [/QUOTE]
