Anybody tried rust-proof BRZ?
I often find rusted wheel hangers, exhaust pipes, etc. Wondering anybody has put stuff like rust-oleum under the car and make sure all the steel stuff stays rust-free? If there is a DIY available, would love to take a look. Thanks.

JDM Aero under-panels pretty much cover the entire bottom of the car, I'd much rather go that route.

Could you please elaborate/educate what you mean by 'Surface rust protects'? Thanks.

Careful where you get your rust proofing. Rust proofed my car at a local shop that uses a gel base. That gel base got dirty real fast. Almost disgusting. I had to wipe it all off because it turned into brown. Looked like some took a wet number 2 on my door jams.
I plan on buying some cans myself and spraying the major parts. Only like $7-8 dollars a can of rust check. |
