   Take them off mate clean off under the arches then either coat them with underseal or Hammerite.

   Is that the black plastic bit infront of your wheel under the arch? If it is ive just been looking at mine not that long ago, my right one is fucked and hanging off. Where you get them from just a scrappy?

   hello mate , i have purchased used ones , i think this time im going to buy new and buy a full set of clips , i don't really want to take the splash guards out as they do help the inner arches from getting hammered and rusting through in the end , even if it is a crap bit of plastic it's got to help in some way ( i think ) lol

   Just a tip mate mud & water gets trapped under these splash guards then corrosion sets in.I removed my rear 1`s & found rust that needed treating up to you though.

   mate just got my new drivers side splash guard from citroen cost was £27.00 , a tad bit expensive but i have purchased some on line before one was the wrong one ! it was for a base model saxo the other i got by post was snapped in half , so i thought sod it splash out and buy new also got all the clips they are cheap so that was cool ...
