To be honest, it's a bit of a lottery what you will find behind them. They're a bit of a water/ dirt trap  :sad:

I would take the plastic inner wheel arch off and have a look around with a torch before commiting, it won't show any paint bubbling but at least you will be able to see if the wheel arch is still there  :wink:
