Saxo Front Arch

[Law08]

Hi

My front passenger side arch is lose and when driving on the motorways you can see it flapping about when the air catches it.

I have got some clips from the dealers. I was just wonder how the arch is actually held on just by the plastic clips and is the arch glued on as well.

And what's the best way to take the arch off without damaging the body work and damaging the rest of the clips?

Thanks,

im pretty sure its just clips that hold it on and sometimes i think people put tigerseal on it but it wont come off again after that :)

Avoid using Tigerseal if you can it makes a mess if you have to remove them for some reason. The clips are 12p each from Citroen the ones from ebay don't seem to hold the kit on as tight.

I would put some no more nails exterior in the gap mate its as strong as fk as you can actually get it off the paint work once it drys unlike tigerseal, i fitted an entire kit using it and its been completley fine.

dont forget the edge tucks under the lip of the bumper. if thats snapped off you're knackered as the air catches it and unclips it

I had a look at the arch before and the clips towards the end of the arch near the door have come off / snapped. I tried slowly pull at the arch but it feels like its going to snap.

Whats the best way to remove the arch without snapping the rest of the clips?

Can you fit a flatt headed screwdriver in the gap seal but at the top, if you can do that pop one in to stretch the arch out and put some bonder behind, clamp it on and leave it for 2 hours and it will be fine.
