No worries. Mines started to go rusty at the top. So I'll be doing the same at some point.

I heard the reason why they go rusty is because of that foam piece. apparently it collects water and then holds it there inside the wing causing the rust.

I just replaced my drivers wing, although refitted the foam before I heard this. I'll remove the inner arch plastic and fish it out next time it's up on the jack.
