Wheel arch covers

Post by trikeboiler » Sun Feb 19, 2023 8:35 pm

Hi all, just wondered if anybody had fitted these steel wheel arch covers, they are on eBay at £68 for a set of four, they clip on, they look good on the pictures but are they going to stay on, has anyone fitted these and if so what do you think of them. Thanks

I’ve got them on mine

Although I bought the Bongo wiht them already on, they look ok but the rubber behind it has gone brittle and looks crap now

I want to take them off but I’m a bit scared they might be hiding rust, apparently they are water traps too

Thanks for getting back to me, going to do a bit of repair work on the front arches and then fit some with plenty of silicone behind them, I shall let you know if it's successful. Thanks again
