    Default VN Rust

    Ey guys I just discovered, on my drivers side pillar rust is starting to appear around the rear window rubber. Wondering what the best way to treat it with? I was thinking of rubbing it back and masking it up and painting it as you wont be able to see it anyway.

    going to be a fun weekend

    My Vn has alot of rust around the rear window rubber. I removed the rear window and cut out the rust and lucky a mate has a wrecked shell so i used the panels of it to replace them and welded in. To have this done does cost abit but stopped the rust.
