Advice Needed - MKIV Supra Boot Lid

[Jaycm]

Morning All,

I believe I may not be the only Supra owner to have had this problem so thought I best drop a thread in here hoping for some advice really.

My boot lid has the dreaded rust around the lower part of the window/seal. So much so the rust is actually lifting the seal up.

I want some guidance on what is the best route to go as I want to do the job once and not twice if that makes sense.

My options as far as I am aware are;

1 - Cars in a bodyshop at the end of the year getting some bits done, do I get them to remove the rear window/cut out the rusted areas and paint/fit a new seal

2 - Buy a second hand Boot Lid with no rust and get it sprayed to match my car 

My worry about step 2 would be I do all that then it's a ticking time bomb as to when it may rust in a week or a few year, no one knows.

Option 1 as long as done right

I did option 2 but had the glass removed and full prepped and painted

Do it once, do it right. 

I'm with Mark, glass out and make sure all the rust is treated.

Understood gents, best doing it once and for all.
