Thanks Graham. If the subframe rusts, it can start casing structural issues after a while, but if the diff rusts, it makes no difference. Paint would flake off after a while, so I don't see the point.

I thought it was odd that you bothered to get all the wishbones and subframes blasted and painted and didn't even bother giving the half-shafts and diff a quick spray paint. It would have really complimented the job, could have been done while waiting for the parts. Also missed opportunity to underseal the car without the subframe there. Anyway, excited to see the end result.

Priorities I guess. Rusty subframes or suspension arms will eventually cause issues if you leave them rot long enough, but corrosion on the outside of the diff casing doesn't cause problems. The coilovers are only a year or 2 old so just gave the anodised surfaces a reoil to keep them clean.
