I took my old Faded grey arches off and all the screws it was a nightmare.. I have just got a new set sprayed... Whats the best way to put them back on? Could i bond them to the car or would they just fall off? Whats the best stuff to use?
Help Would be great

I cant believe you screwed them off? I tried to get one off once when colour coding the car, wasted about 10min on it then ripped it off along with the rest in seconds lol
doesnt matter if you break the clips, since you glue them back on.. Yeah the odd one might come off. Ive had my car colour coded a year and lost an arch only once.

Use 2 screws if you wanna be safe. One at the top and one at the bottom.

i bonded them on and the were fine - tiger seal is the job - if you wana use the screws the wheels (normally) have to come off then loosen the arch lining and get to the screws that way!!

yeah but the problem then will be getting the nut on the back of them to keep them secure - thats when the lining has to come off (well on the front anyway!!)
