Door sills and thresholds ranged from 54-112 µm.

  • Both left and right fenders had parking chips, likely from doors.
  • The edges of the rear wheel arches started to show corrosion, necessitating repair and welding.
  • A spot on the right sill was accidentally scratched to the metal during service at a repair shop.
  • According to the previous owner, the driver’s door was scraped in a parking incident. It has not been painted during my ownership.

Several photos before painting and repair:

Paintwork was performed twice by the Paint and Body Shop No. 1. Photos were kindly provided by the workshop master.
