GQ Guard Trim

Post by patrol42 »

I working out a fe wthings i want to do to the gq, one is a trim the guards a bit.

One question i had was in relation to that plastic inner guard on both Passenger and drivers front guards.

How does everyone reattach this? or do you put it out all together?

Cheers

Thanks Mate, I just got to think of a good way to reattach the innerguards without the lip on the guard.

I recommend putting them back on ,or else you get mud in the door hinges and will be forever trying to clean them . Most of my screws went back in but on a couple I used cable ties ....

Thanks..I am leaving the lip so that I can re-attach the flares..i guess refitting the plastic inners is just going to be a fiddly job..but will definately be doing it..
