We spent today repairing my rusty rear valence, it bothered me from the day
I bought the car, I still have to let the paint cure before I redo the black
bottom. Paint/clearcoat is from paintscratch.com.

I didn't think about taking pics until it was too late. There was a rust bubble under the tow
hook, it was pretty bad but the PO painted over it to hide it.

I thought about removing the tow hook but it got me out
of a bind or two in the winter, I got stuck in my driveway and pulled the
e30 out with my truck by the rear tow hook.

Nice, it feels good to rid rust spots that bother you. Your car is further pimped now.

rustamd, that's an idea but I didn't feel like messing with it, you need a tow
hook for emergencies or the tow truck guy will attach the hooks to your axles:help

vtbimmer, yeah it feels good to finally lose the rust.
