Wheel arch protectors

[makisparrow]

Hey, does anyone know how to make these nice again or replace them? Are they hard to get off and where can I get new ones?

Also, where can I order new VW cap for the wheels?

Thanks!

I had the ones on an old Cali wrapped as they had discoloured, done a great job with carbon style type.
You could get them filled first, the carbon style is a lot thicker so may help hiding filler.
Or it’s rip off and fit new

Had similar style arches on my old hatches back in the 80/90’s. I used Boiled Linseed oil can get at good DIY centre, sticky at first but when dries and light polish with a cloth took the arches back to jet black.

Try searching trendline tunning on eBay. Got my bumper protector there (yes it is tunning )

Think the op was probs referring to the giant gouge in the arch as opposed to the fading? He needs protection for his arch protection.

Well they did the job for sure I am debating fitting these,as for getting them off if they are stuck on with adhesive pads I would get some strong fishing line lift one corner and use the fishing line like a saw it will cut through the adhesive pads.if you Google car badge removal techniques it is the Same principle.

I would also get a hair dryer and get the arch trim warm first to soften the adhesive then use the fishing line trick
