Good lord, that's the worst I have seen. Must have been the Lake District weather was it?...before it was rescued by Paul.

Common problem because like the XM sub-frames was made from plain steel is just painted black.
Falls victim to UK road salt.

The next step in painting, managed to get these bits squeezed in if I removed them, luckily no masking is required as the light unit trim is easily removable once the light unit is removed from the car.

I think the rear end should look quite tidy with the new bits painted.

Bits of trim back from the painters and installed on the car. A couple of before and after shots...

And so you should be! Great work.
Is it just my imagination, or is that towball not sitting in the centre of the car?

Nope... It's at the rear... Where it works best

Boom-Tsh...
I think the photographer was not central making the projecting tow-ball appear offset.

Sorry, but it just does not look right to me, Ray.
Mounting bar down at the left, towball offset to the right.
I may be wrong, so I'll say no more.
