   Hi peeps. Im new on here but had the little saxo for about 5 months now. Unfortunatly i lost the passenger side wheel arch when i hit a puddle awhile back, but i never realised i had untill i got home and my dad pointed it out. I did look for it but couldnt find it.
   
   All im after is just the passenger side wheel arch for a mk2 VTR, ive looked on ebay and there the full kits. Will citroen sell me the part im after or will i have 2 buy the full kit? also does anybody know of any websites where i could just purchase the part from instead of havin 2 go citroen?
   
   Cheers

   you tryed breakers yards mate???
   
   ebay have breakers on them, at least try and get the arch in same colour as car will work out much cheaper than buying a part from citroen, then having to pay to get it sprayed
   
   plus with the part already sprayed you stand a much better chance of getting the paint to match
   
   im guessing your car cos icelandic grey from your details, (moonstone is the peugeot colour)

   You should be able to get one for about £15 from scrappy or ebay no problem.
   
   Brand new items from Citroen are about 5x that amount plus you'd have to fork out for spraying costs too

   Well i was at work and on my way home it had been raining really bad and the whole place was flooded really badly. and the water was gathering in the dips in the road and i was boostin on from work and hit a few, so i can only presume its took it off there! ive looked on ebay for 1 but there only the full kits with the other arches that i dont need. and yes thats the colour of my car lol, thought peugeot/citroen were basicaly the same lol. im gona try nd call into a few scrappys like, but my colour is a rare colour is it not? as i havnt seen many around in this colour!
