It is hydro yes.

The drip rail is just spot welded to the underside of the gutter but, I don't know if you can buy them.

Not a very exciting update I'm afraid. Just got the floors all seam sealed, skim of filler over the welds & ready for painting. The rest of the car is ready to mask up & start painting now as well.

Erm, no, I've decided I'll be coming up in the maestro van & hopefully will get all the bright work & other bits I'll need to finish it off.

Can't take any chance when it comes to protection ;D
