If it's a film, then yes it can be removed, but if it's factory glass then the glass itself is stained to tint it, so no. |

Well, I went to a bodyshop I know in Stafford on Sat, (as I used to live near Stoke and have seen his work). Mines just bad. Looks like Stevie Wonder and Charlie Sheen fixed it last time, during a winning streak !

If you got bad rust, then yes I would get a new frame. I wonder wether you could get the glass removed in one piece out of your old tailgate and refitted to your new to you second hand one.

I had some rust taken off my upper tail gate earlier this year on the td6. I decided it would be best to use the dealers body shop. It needed stripping back, they insisted the whole door be painted to match it up and it would need new lettering on the door when finished. Whole job £120!!!.......if you think that the letters cost £50 on their own, a cheep fix really. Current: TDV8 (3.6) RRS HSE

The Forth Bridge has just finished being painted with a new type of paint and all the painters have been laid off.

I've ended up buying an upper tailgate from a 2008 model, which has factory privacy glass, so no film.
