2003/2004 Blobeyes - rust?
 
Is there anything to look out for rust wise on 2003/2004 vintage blobeyes?

Do they suffer from the same rear arch issue as the classics?

Anything else I should know?

top of windscreen where it meets the roof

underneath front bumper/chassis rail i think

open the boot and look at where the water drains down (on the outside of the rubber seal) mine has a few little rust spots there,i imagine its an area that never gets washed and it traps the dirt there

Well mine is a 2005 and no problems as far as I am aware, even after going out in all that snow.:rolleyes:

no rust problems really, the arches are much better than the classics, the cross member issue was more on the bugs than blobs but its a bolt on part anyway and not that hard to replace.

Check under rear spoiler if an sti as its the only common area I know of, mine started a little there and I just replaced the boot lid with a spec c aluminium one, so got upgrade at same time
