Recommendations: Boot Struts / Paint

[Daldoras]

Hi All,

I've attached two photos of issues I've been wanting to take care of for a while. DIY tips preferred.

The first is both my boot struts have snapped off at the bottom. The second is the paint flaking between the front and back doors - both sides.

Any tips would be great. Finally have the time nowadays to do stuff like this

Thanks!
