Trim around wheel arches

The trim around my wheel arches keeps coming off, does any one have any ideas as to the best way to solve this, or where to get new ones from?

Many thanks

There is some merit in throwing them away, they are after all only stone protectors and somewhat cosmetic. Trouble is they hold all the mud and moisture which in time start corroding and look a bit scruffy. Then its time to replace them again at some cost.

But they do cover the edge of the wheelarch plastic liner helping to stop crud getting in behind and perhaps attacking the metal.

I replaced mine, but agree that they will encourage corrosion as they hold moisture underneath.

especially if you garage your car when wet.

Its been suggested in another thread that the reason they warp at the ends is because the inner metal is left exposed when they are cut to length and sealing the ends before fitting may help, so when I recently replaced mine I painted then ends with some Hammerite.

Is this offer still on? Am picking up my FL2 on Saturday, and know that the arch rubbers are warped so may need to change them all.

Also, any recommendations for tough cargo mats (boot liners) to catch spillage liquids, need to be compatible also for folded down seats, also which waterproof seat covers? Thumbs Up
