Some little fcuker has decided it would be funny to pull my wheel arch off the other night. its hanging off and i had to tie back wid cable tie.
Vauxhall said it would cost more in labour than the 3 little clips that is needed to fix it. they said at least £120
How do get the arches off?? it needs to slide over the clips to stay in place, and i cant slide over them because the front bumper is in the way
well peeed off.
help

Exactally the same on the C I have removed mine and they are real easy to fit DIY rather than letting the vauxhall monkeys near it
