k all done now,took it to a garage in the end as i couldn't be assed faffing around with the bloody arch lining...i am lazy yes lol.pics soon of said sprayed arches.

i only have a bolt at either end of my arch trims the rest is sealented on.

the arch linings should simply clip back in :)

got the arch off etc...now how do i get the bloody arch lining back in?also how can i stick the arches back on as i think i broke a few of the screws/clips coz they were rusty as fook!

pull it hard....

its drivers side im having a problem with,i know where the bolts and rivets are,got all the rivets out,arch lingin is loose at the front,but won't pull out for some reason making the bolts on the arches inaccessible.also once i've got so pissed off and completly fooked my arch lining up how do i put it back on,where do i get the rivets etc?

:boggle: i cant see where the difficulties are coming from. The outer arch trim is held on with bolts (about 8mm i think) you can feel these if you feel inside the arch. then the inside is the rivits as mentioned above and two bolts if i remember correctly. One by the bottom of the front bumper and another directly behind the hub area if your looking at it straight from the side.

PS dont spray it on the car it will look shoot. You got the wheel off?

ahh man,managed to get all the lil rivets out,but couldn't get the arch liner out as it's bein a bitch!got 1 of the arches off but not the other,looks like im gona have to spray it still on the car then...:(

then put said screwdriver into the hole that is now present and lever it off. Thats how i did it anyway.

yeah, the expandable ones

if its the ones im thinking about, you pop the centre of them out which closes it alittle and lets the plastic rivit come out. somthing like a small philips screwdriver would do the job to pop the centre out.

vaux dealer, very cheap :)

ahh k,might have to do that then coz theres no way im gettin them off any other way lol,where can i get new 1's from mate?

lol....i just just removed them with pliers (cutter) and put in new ones :)

no seriously mate,tried with a flat screw driver,won't budge for shoot!there tighter than a nuns fanneh!

they are plastic fixings. use a flat screw driver

ye but how you remove the arch liner?the fixings don't have a specific hole to undo it with if you know what i mean...

yes, remove wheel, arch liners and it's a 2 mins job :)

i know its been posted many times before,but i can't find anything on the search engine that will help,so...do i need to take the arch liner out to remove the front arches?if so how,as the fixings/screws look impossible to get off.already got the front bumper off,just no idea how to take the front arches off...cheers :)
