    Replacing front wheel arch linings

    Is it a simple job to remove and replace the front arch linings.
    can it be done by just removing the wheel, or is it more involved than that.

    Easy job. Remove the wheel to aid access and just remove the screws.

      Agree. Might be wise to pressure wash the wheel well first to remove crud/mud. The first time I took a wheel well liner off on my C4 S4 to make a "Frankenliner", missed seeing two of the screws at the upper part because they were covered in removable crud.
