I have developed the classic rust spot on the bact hatch underneath the factory spoiler on a 1992 240sx se.
And i want to get rid of the old spoiler and get a new one but not too crazy just sort of simple. i dont want something thats 3 feet off the hatch. Any ideas out there????
Thanks

Some naval jelly will help remove. Sanding down and cutting out the rust (if necessary) would help. Then prime the affected area until you are ready for a paint job. That the short way. Be sure to remove all of the rust befor you prime or the rust will bubble through.

hey Silverbullet your rust spot is identical to mine.
I really just want to get that fixed and then i everything body and engine wise is tip top.....
Then come the mods!!
Lots to spend
let me know if you do anything about that damn rust, and ill do the same.
I think ill cut it out and patch in new peice and just repaint.

i'm acutally pretty cool with my rust spot, as long as it dosn't grow, its all good. I plan to get a full paint job in the future anways, black just gets too damn hot in the summer, i always worry about my car when its in the sun :cry:

Ah yes, the oh-so-common rear spoiler rust problem.
Here are 3 popular wings that we carry for the s13 Hatchback:

S13 Hatchback Wangan Wing

180SX Type X rear wing

RB Style Rear Wing
The Wangan wing is probably your best bet if you're trying to hide the rust because it will cover as much of the area as possible.
