    hi, i work at lehmans garage and im in the middle of trying to get special pricing for mnsubaru members....just as a preliminary thing, how many of you would be interisted in some paint and body work? im in the middle of writting a spoiler delete estimate as many people i know myself included want to get rid of the stock sti spoiler. iv done it once before for a friend im just waiting to hear back on pricing..its cheaper than you think...if interisted let me know ill be posting the estimate on the spoiler delete later today when i get concrete number from my manager.

    I would be very interested in a reasonable price to fix some rust that's starting to form by the gas cap.

    The only rust I have was underneath the gas cap door. Last summer I tried to sand it, apply a rust inhibitor and a fresh coat of paint myself since it was out of sight.

    After just one winter up in Duluth though, the rust is back and starting to get worse. I figure I better take it to a professional soon before it gets too big and costly to fix.

    In for price on spoiler delete. Mine is a WRX trunk, so less holes than an STI, if that matters.

    Wonder if this guy will be back anytime? I've got a project...

    [​IMG]​

    Any ballpark on how much damage like this would cost to fix?
    And here's a picture of the rust under my gas cap lid, would love to have both taken care of at the same time.

    Lehman's is working on my wife's car, theyre probably swamped after the storm damage. I don't know if they've even started on it and it's been there 5 days or so. I have a few scratches to buff out too.
