bodilx6 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Pic 1 being the inner fender not lining up to the wheelarch. All screws are there and the fender seems to be attached nicely. It is almost new. Pic 2 and 3 are from the air duct against the windscreen. The foam seems to have expanded and isn't looking too nice. I have earlier "fixed" this by pulling the duct up ½ an inch but that results in noisy squeeks when driving. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodilx6 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 Pic 1 : the plastic should go behind the fender pic 2&3: i would buy new or source second hand Thanks. The trouble is that I can't get it to stay behind the fender. I can't think of anything I can use to make it stay there.. When you say buy new, what part are you thinking of? It would be the entire dash as far as I can see. I was hoping there might be an easy fix to shink or reattach the plastic to the base or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 The plastic inner fender sounds like its become distorted perhaps by heat, if it wont stay in it original place, there are screws to hold it, i have to hook mine out in order to access my bumper fixings, so maybe careful application of heat to reform it? As for the dash, i have a similar problem on a smaller scale, but as yet don't have a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Might be worth speaking to 1 of those plastic surgens (Dash repair companies) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanM Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Foam was showing on mine but they fixed when the windscreen was out for the re-spray. Picking it up on Friday [GRIN][/GRIN] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 use a felt tip for the foam, just colour it in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodilx6 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 cant let little things get you like that, youll go mad becuase there will be more.... I'm already mad... That's just the way I roll.. Everything must be like the day it was in the showroom when Beverly Hill 90210 was at its peak! use a felt tip for the foam, just colour it in ...But yes, thought about trying that..
