Hi all, in regards to my gutters. I just started my album with a few photos of my beddy and the shocking condition of the gutters. Could do with some advice. I know she looks a bit bright but you gotta start somewhere.

Hey Jaytee, posted some piccy's for ya, look in my gallery under body works and Borrie.......feel free to send me some Q's via PM , I just might not get them straight away as ..." workin on da Vans bro" .... Dano

that looks like fun bro:)
i dont care how bad they are its still is not worth cutting them off!! they just look rediculous.
looks like you got a few days work ahead of yourself.
it might be worth looking at cutting the whole thing off, getting someone to fold up a new one and weld a whole new gutter on. ive seen that done before. yours may be just too much work to repair if its like that all the way round. but by the looks of things you could get away with just getting a few sections folded up.
like your van bro!!! jelly beans are the best for always shining up!!! bit of metal polish and those wheels will look a treat!!
cheers

hey Jaytee, I had a quick look, not too bad but will take some time, I cut mine level basically, gave all a bloody good clean, treated with rainex, then just re welded a 8mm strip back on, re sealed , etched, primed and painted. I think I have been on my roof noe for 50 hrs but have also done other bits, and am quite commited, (every w/end and daylight hour + dark ones for the past 5-6 weeks) if your not too confident at least you can justify some ones quote 50+ hrs at say $65 dollras ????? good luck.
