Different wheel arch
Does anyone know if there are differt types of wheel arches? My G has just come back, and already one of the arches is broken, I don't know how the hell it is possible though. The previous arces were really tough, the car has been on it's side twice now, and never broke one. The new ones look as if they are made of a harder plastic.
I want to go back to the garage, but need to know first whether you did get a rubber and a hard plastic arch.
Correct , they are few differents one .... fibre glass or thick rubber

fred, hi there. the 463 [which is what christo has] only comes with the hard plastic style wheel arch unlike the 460 which was first available with the wide version soft rubber style similar to the headlamp surrounds, then the same wide version was made in abs hard plastic , then briefly a fibre glass version was available and then finally a hard palstic version with softer lines as used on the 463.,,bloody confusing but true !
christo which one has broken? fr or rr ?? this is wierd as your arches should be the hard plastic version thats hard to break,unless they are aftermarket replica fibre glass,,
