WANTED- Arch Liners

[StewyD32]

As the title says. Looking for some in good condition if there is any out there.
Pre facelift ones (if there is a difference)

[ottostreet]

I haven't been able to find any for a facelift in decent nick. Nearly six months looking. I think you'll have to bite the bullet and buy new from Camskill. I would have thought it somewhat easier to get the pre facelift ones!

[StewyD32]

didn't know there was a difference to pre and facelifts. good to know.
I'll have to have to start ringing breakers i'd say

[ottostreet]

Feck all difference bar the position of the holes for the screws apparently. It's ridiculous money for new ones...something like 55 sterling each new for prefacelift, and 90 quid sterling each for facelifts!

[StewyD32]

F*** that. Thats crazy money.
i'll just rip the remains of the ones i have off. ya don't really need them do ya?

[ottostreet]

I'm not sure, they look crap if theyre not there, but i dont think theyre actually essential. Might speed up rusting of the wings without them though!

If you guys want to save a few quid then do what I did some years ago - get a second hand set, condition not important. Cut them up and use pop rivets to secure sections onto parts of liner that are damaged / worn / ripped away. while you're at it, get a heat gun and push the sections that wore previously upwards and inwards. Paint rivet heads black, job done.

Without them. Grit and moisture will rust and erode the underside fairly quickly.

just a quick note there is a difference between pre and facelift arch liners
the facelift ones are a bit bigger and have a different shape on the front ( moulds with the shape of the facelift bumper )

[Myfeckin FTO]

That FTO of yours has gone through a few sets of arch liners at this stage Stewy. I had a new set pop riveted out of the way when I owned the car - looks like they've reached their shelf life. Try get your hands on a 2nd hand set (there must be quite a few FTOs in breakers yards now) and rivet them out of the way. They hang way too low for a lowered FTO esp when you start running a 45 profile 17 inch tyre.

Wi be looking in the scrappy at the weekend. Will let ya know what turns up
