The cage offered up a bit of an oddity, whereas one of the rear drops to the arch wouldn't quite reach! Instead of having to send the whole thing back and waiting god knows how long for a replacememnt, we decided to box section out to meet it.

that cage looks good, wheres it from ??
Its an OMP, from Rallynuts!
Is that Red Oxide paint?
Yesh.
Great cage :thumb: its good to know you boys are safe!!:p
Call me a dunce but whats special about red oxide paint - seen a few people use it, any particular reason over something like hammerite for example?
Normal primer is actually porus which lets moisture in, whereas red oxide primer has anti corrosion properties and isnt porus. As for Hammerite, its not an ideal basecoat lol
Makes you wonder why i didnt use it on the floorpan after i removed the sound deadening doesnt it?
Its because i didnt have any at the time lol
red-oxide isint as good as it use to be so im told (dad) it has less oxide in (cheaper to produce) like you said bottlethroddy its still a good base coat!!!
