Title: GTI 16v wheel arch trim
Post by: gtiprodigy on 26 March 2012, 18:42

Hi

had a bit of a mare the other day when driving down the A14, my front drivers side arch trim on 16v flew off and i couldn't stop to retrieve it.

I have been scouring the internet since and i am unable to find a second hand replacement. I have seen full sets go on ebay but never just one, and my local breakers never have them.

Does anyone have any suggestions (or a spare wheel arch trim)?

Thanks

thought about a new one but then i knew i would need to get a full set plus skirts so the plastic would match. Couldn't be dealing with one nice pristine arch and all the others being well seasoned.
