Hi All
I have a 1995 960 with the color-coded bumpers. They are scraped on the edges although the paint has not come off. I was wondering if anyone has any tips on repairing them? I am wary of t-cutting the paint on the plastic as I think this may be too abrasive?

Also, there is a small area of surface rust at the bottom of the front wing (near where the mud flap is). I thought these cars were galvanised and did not rust? Given the steel is galvanised, is it safe to rub the rust down to bare metal before repainting or is there another way to tackel this? (I don't want to rub away the "galvanisation" if there is such a thing?)

Thanks in advance.
