hate it when you driving down the road and suddenly your driver side wheel arch comes off on a dual carrage way.
best part was playing cat a mouse to get it back the arch is scratched to hell looks like 2 of the clip deside just to break or gone brital very windy this way to day so think they just gave up .
Any one know roughly how much to get arch painted?

If you do it your self the paint will probably set you back about £25

Harsh mate! I was driving down the M1 yesterday and the car behind me must have been walloped by an orange chevron!
I remember something hitting the screen and bouncing over the car and me thinking it must have been some motorway debris. Wasn't until I stopped that I realised I was half a citroen logo missing from the bonnet!

hi mate i truely hate this aswell. when i bought my old vtr 3 years ago the wheel arch piece ripped off going very fast down motorway - smashed to pieces on front of a hgv - if it had been a car would easily have killed someone or caused a major accident - i encourage every one to replace all their clips only costa few pence each
