    rust - advice needed

    My Coupé doesn't look as good as I wish. Especially the body needs work.I have to replace the petrol tubes as they loose petrol. Now they are ready to be installed. IMO they can't be mounted without either cutting them into pieces or the engine must go out as there is not enough space to install them. I thought about using flexible (racing?) tubing. Like that I could avoid a lot of work. The rust at the back where the subframe is mounted looks terrible. Please look at the pictures on gallery.me.com/fendent in the S2 rust and tell me what I can do.

    the rust spreads out under the underseal, IMHO you need to strip all the underseal around the rust areas and retreat it or it will just get worse... but your does not look very bad - have a look at my project thread if you want to see how bad mine was and how i fixed it - plus some pics of new fuel lines I made:
