Hi I’ve just bought a wrx300 and it’s been sat for a few years it’s had a full service and new coilovers now but underneath there is surface rust on suspension bits and subframe that I’d like tidying up. I don’t just want underseal spaying everywhere I’d like it done properly as I plan to keep the car. Any recommendations for places to take it I’m Midlands based but can travel

before & after has high ramp, cars on coilovers would not fit on it
im booked in there but not sure i will go
he just wash it and apply his coating for 900 quid
think for 300 more i would prefer to have it sand blasted, removing subrframes ,suspension bits for powdercoat, doing rear arches in a meantime

Unless whoever is doing the work is removing all the components like subframes and fuel tank I wouldn’t bother. It’s impossible to inspect or treat these areas without removing what’s in the way and they’re a fairly substantial portion of the underside.

I’ve spoke to before and after and it’s basically a pressure wash then cover everything in underseal which just hides it. I want the rust treated then sealed really

Honestly mate, unless you want the bill of a full underside strip down etc (starting from £1500) I'd do it myself. Or if you know people in the trade.

Previously started a resto on a V5 Limited Type R, haven't tackled the underside yet but mate there is rust in all sorts of places.
