Bodykit?
All of my panels on my Vtr are starting to come away from the car where the clips are ether snapped or missing. In going to take the front and rear arches and the side skirts of the car and clean behind them and replace all the clips.
Could someone point me in the right direction of the different clips I'll need for these bits and how to remove the front wings? I'm aware the side skirts have torx holding them on and the rear arch has a nut behind the rear door card holding it on? Anything I need to watch out for?
Thanks
Edit: also the bottom panel of the doors I need to replace whatever holds then on, any ideas?

just remove it all and go to citroen so you know exactly how many you need. Theyre like pennies each.
never removed the door panels

I thought that the different panels contained different clip sizes? Do the front arches just pull off? Anyone hae any idea about the lower door panels?

I think i'll just go to the scrapyard tomorrow and work out how all the panels realise and that way i'll be able to work out how many clips i need and what type. Unless anyone knows for sure?
