At Automotive Passion we have specifically designed Carbon Fibre Arch Guards to not only prevent damage caused by stone chips but also to guard against liquid damage such as tar.

Our Front & Rear Arch Guard package enhances the appearance of the wheel arches providing a sporty appearance.

How to install

 Tools Needed:

• Rivet gun (you can buy here)
  

• Drill + drill bit (only if your car doesn¡¯t already have holes)

• Screwdriver

• Cleaning cloth + cleaning spray

Install Steps:

1. Clean & prepare the wheel-arch and liner area

   • Thoroughly clean the wheel-arch edge and inner liner (remove dirt, grime, oil, or grease). A clean, dry surface helps the liner and guards sit properly.

   • If your arch guards require removing existing clips or fasteners (pop-rivets or screws) from the arch liner ¡ª remove them carefully first.

2. Test-fit the arch guards to check alignment

   • Hold the arch guard up to the arch to check how it fits: does it follow the curve, align with screw/rivet hole locations (or where you¡¯ll drill)  This helps avoid misaligned holes or gaps.
     

3. Install the arch guards with rivets/clips using your rivet gun

   • Position the guard, insert rivets (or provided clips/fasteners) through the guard and liner holes. Use your rivet gun to ¡°pop¡± the rivets: this locks the guard firmly in place.

   • The rivet gun should pull the rivet stem until the rivet head clamps down against the guard and liner ¡ª securing them together.

4. Re-fit or secure the liner (if applicable)

   • After the arch guard is fixed, reattach the inner arch liner ¡ª either by using the supplied plugs/rivets or the original liner fasteners (if they fit). This ensures the liner and the guard form a solid, neat assembly.

   • Make sure the guard sits flush and seamlessly with the liner/bodywork: no gaps, no loose edges.

5. Final check and clean-up

   • Once everything is fixed, double-check that all rivets/clips are tight, the guards are secure, and the liner is properly fitted.

   • Clean off any fingerprints or residue, and make sure there¡¯s no dirt trapped between guard and bodywork.
