So, it seems some of the clips on my silver gear gaiter surround have snapped off and every time I shift into reverse, it pops out. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement one? I've searched ebay with no success, as all I can find is the gaiter itself. I could get a new R26 one from renaultpartsdirect but it's nearly £50. Would it be possible to get a cheaper normal megane mk2 one from my local dealer? Cheers Ben.
You'll probably find new ones are black not silver. £50 is a bit steep though I think I paid £30-40 from ads
After further searching on ebay, I've managed to find a used one from a 1.6 megane. It was £17.95 with free P&P and it's silver, I'll report back when it arrives.
Gaiter and surround arrived today, it's the right size and colour and all of the clips are intact as well. Very happy overall, ebay is definitely the way to go Haven't fitted it yet but should be fairly straightforward.
There's a carbon fibre cover for it in the process of being made, I'm awaiting the first one to test it and get some pics. It will bond to the original though not a direct replacement.
No mate Mega Carbon https://www.facebook.com/megacarbon1?fref=ts www.megacarbon.co.uk I fitted the rear wiper cover last week, pics on his Facebook site. Decent quality and looks great.
ok they are a small plastic fitting that go on the end of skirts and just around the wheel arch, that guy does them in carbon, a lot of megs get deep scatches there from the stones of the wheels, handy way to hide them instead of a respray I guess...go to gavins link above the .uk one and look below at the other ads and you will see a clio one mate
Trouble I'm having with getting the spats made is that the guy needs an original part to mould too or copy, he doesn't own a Megane, how can I get a mould of the rear wheel arch section? Fibreglass it? The Clio and Astra ones were moulded to the side skirts but it's not like he can buy one or a pair to mould to as they done have any.
Could you not lend him the car for a little bit for him to work on? If he'd like he can have mine?? Cheeky
I think id prefer the carbon ones but they are pretty small. I'm having my stone chips sorted hopefully within the next couple of weeks ready to fit something like them but the chips do go along way up further than the carbon ones will protect.
