My rear bumper had a dent (I was too SLOW for once...and someone in a hurry bumped into me) and quite a bit of rust. So I got my self some new parts (middle and side parts as well as a set of bolts (W&N - good choice as the originals all but one tore off when I undid the old bumper)).
And then I set about never having to worry about rust ever again. I want that bumper to outlast the car. Or me.
the old crusty one...
new parts. Then first creeping oil into the crevace. Then Chassis paint (with creeping oil component) into crevace and full paint of backside. Then protective fat into the crevace and the whole backside. I only reused the rubber strip (after full and carefull cleaning)
next time: use gloves!
sad but true: this kitchen has prepared more car parts than hot meals...
