arches

Morning, My recently bought C220 '96 has chrome arches on:eek: , I want them off. The front ones have two screws, but I can't see how the rear ones are permanently attached. Does anyone know if some sort of glue will have been used, and what are the chances of my wings looking ok when and...

my c140 500.. i have just fitted 19 inch wheels to my car.. the tyre size as recommended by murray systems is 285 35 19 on rear and 255 40 19 on front.. on the rear offside the tyre scrapes on the arch when under load ie speed bumps... i find it strange that it is only on one side... what...

Anybody come across all four wheel arches corroding on a W202 1997 that cost 32,000 when new? Is this poor bodywork?comments please rgds

As some oif you know, I have been waiting to get hold of repair panels for the rear wings on my coupe, only to find out now that they are not available. This means changing the rear quaters as well as the front wings. Wide Body CE? It would look the biz, and im told the rear wings are the...

Anyone know of a decent place in South East? thanks,

Folks my S320 had a little rust on the rear wheel arches. No problem it was and still is under rust warranty (2001 model) Now I have just got it back from the authorised MB body repair place. The new paint on the arches (small lip all the way round about 2cm width) is wavey undulating...

hi, was thinking of putting 19x10's on the rear of my merc w202 so therefore needed fender extensions i.e wide arch kit. and 19 x 9 for front maybe. would anyone know where i can purchase ready made ones? or any bodywork shops around birmingham that may do this for me?

Sorry for the pic quality, left the camera in London so these crappy pics off my phone will have to do until I get back. Sorted out the problems with the rubbing arches and also swaped out the front spring pads for #3's (the #2's were TOO low!). Just been washed and Zymol'd :cool: EDIT...

Greetingz! I have managed to make a royal fool of myself, but at least I can warn everyone out there, DO NOT get your tyres/wheels done in the tyre store in south hall! I got some aloys for my W202 C-class, they got alloys which were too big (18") the wrong offset (they stick out by an inch in...

One of the front wheels on my 190E has been rubbing in the arches since I took the tyres back up to a standard size 60 profile - they used to be 55 profile. It rubs going over most bumps. It is lowered, but only seems to be running on the drivers side front wheel. Can you get pads to jack...

Inned to have the internal lip of my rear arch rolled or hammered in as it is rubbing on my new wheels. Is there anyone that can recommend me a good place to have it done? Preferably in the London area please.
