    this happened to me, but allot worse in the same place, got a panel beater who got it 97% straight and only needed the smallest amount of filler to bring back to former glory. happened after 1 month of driving my 84 mk2 vr6.

    hope you get it sorted soon

    That's fantastic work. Hopefully the paint repair will be just as good

    Got him back today, apart from the engine now being completely grey/primer dust coloured I am really chuffed with the finish and especially the colour match, no need for blending into the adjacent panels

    Omg that is a beautifully clean and original car. Always did like those teardrop alloys too.

    Glad the repair was so well executed.

    I think the bottle tops would set it off IMO.... always had a soft spot for them
    I think they were small bumper 16v only so may not be in keeping

    That radio looks superb. These old head units are getting sought after now.

    Good job on the repair.
