Technical inner wheel arch
Phone around your local scrap yards, should be about £15 - £20 from them.
I phoned Fiat as one of my rear wheel arch liners has snapped at the bottom, and they wanted about £45 - £50.

Had the very same thing happen to me one night last week when I hit something large in the road (dont think it was a pedestrian), after a huge bang and some research in the daylight discovered my inner arch buggered beyond belief.
Phoned fiat dealer today (after trying some people breaking Grande's on ebay...with no luck), and they quoted me £38 something plus vat for a front arch liner.
Decided to go for it rather than buggering about round scrap yards or messaging endless amount of folk on ebay.

mine snapped as well when a pothole lunched my front wheel... luckily it hasn;t completely gone, but it does make an annoying rattle when driving along. almost as annoying as listening to Nicky campbell on 5live... crappy build quality, i was only going 25 miles an hour and that was enough to snap it out of place. sad times.
Yeah i tried the same thing, messaging different people on ebay to see if they had one, and was constantly met with "no - sorry don't have them" hmm!
Then i found out about Hills salvage - Still not been yet lol
What's the name of the dealer you phoned?

any of your local fiat dealer will be able to supply u with 1
I've phone three dealers in the last ten minutes and got three different prices :bang:
SG Petch £49.23 inc Vat
Warrington Motors £45.19 inc Vat
Chapel House £42.12 inc Vat
Same part, same part number, three completely different prices :bang:

go for the cheapest price
I did in the end lol.
I actually got a fourth price - Forward Autos £42.10
But Chapel House is slightly nearer so less fuel spent travelling to offset the extra 2p difference
It would have worked about £20 from the breakers, but decided new would be better.
i gt mine today aswell jst have to gt it fitted:bang:
Should be a really easy job this mate.
Jack it up take the wheel off and there should be a couple of screws holding this in place, undo all screws remove old one and then fitting the new is reverse of removal

Phone my nearest fiat franchise dealer D Salmon in colchester, wasn't in stock, ordered monday afternoon, and then phoned this morning wednesday before 10am to let me know it was in...will collect and fit on saturday.......I was doing a fair speed after working through the night and managed to hit something big in the road! So happy it was just the liner and not my front bumper that was smashed to pieces!!!!
Looks like i could be busy one day next week part arrived and now collected.
