    Anyone use Taylors rust repair panels QLD?

    Looking at this rust repair panel for my WB ute, front right hand guard is rustin at the bottom where the screws are.

    They sound good but hoping someone has experience. What are the Rares items like? They quote 1mm steel sounds a bit light.

    I no that a lot of people can make there own repair sections, but not me.
    I will be finding someone to do fit repair section for me.
    I can unbolt and bolt the guards off and on no worries, i can even paint them but repairs are not my thing i just cant get them right.

    As far as I know he makes them all so the quality should also be a lot better if I decide to buy repair panels not make them I'll get them off him, I'm really happy with my tailgate skin no tiawaneses rubbish on my ute, he's mates with and doesn't live far from my uncles place which is good too, my uncle first told me about him, next time Im up at there place i wouldn't mind checking out his shed

    Hey I've just been looking at retro rods website for rust repair sections- can anyone recommend them? which ones have you used, how well did they fit/match to original body lines. My panelvan has a few sections that need replacing. also im pretty sure my tailgate its a cheap crappy thai one, only problem with it seems to be that the thin skin creases when lent on. If I was to get a skin do you think it would be possible to attach it to the thai one?

    Rare Spares had a production run of the tailgates done in 1mm steel, as per original. these are heavier and stronger than those sold in the market as crash repair parts.
