The front driver side wiper on my Gen3 has got some sort of mark on it, have a look at the pictures and see what you think.

Im not sure what the cause of this is as i purchased the car with this on it. I thought i could of cleaned it off but it just doesnt move. Can anyone explain what this is/how it happened? How would i go about removing this?

Thanks

This happens to everyone as far as ive read, best to pick off what you can, sand it a little to remove the rust and use hammerite black mat paint to cover it up. I had to do this when i bought my car and it looks 99% good as new.

mat black spray will give you a more even cover, however needs to be quickly masked off with a newspaper..
