I bought 1 for each side last july and it took 3 months for them to turn up. They kept getting sent back to sender by French Customs. Once they did they were the correct ones and in perfect condition. Bloody brexit. Last week I bought 2 tailgate struts from them and came in 4 days

I'm sure this wasn't on their site last year!

Have Renault/their suppliers made some more do we think?

I have no idea if these are the original ones fitted to the car. I took a chance and ordered 2 because the ones fitted to my car were aftermarket and I want it to be as original as possible no matter the cost. You guys are more of an expert on this model of car so maybe someone can tell me if they are correct?

A nice find there Nick, if I wasn't tightening my Trophy budget this year I'd no doubt be getting some to salt away. There'd be no point in me fitting them though, as after a couple of tours round my favourite roads the front wheels would have more than likely worn through them like the originals...

I just hope it doesn't bring about a spate of smashing the damn things off!

Went through 3 genuine ones "back in the day" on my 172 Cup, those tight backroads around Outlane, Golcar & Slawit had an appetite for them...

Thanks for that Sir - can the experts confirm if these are the genuine ones from new -

Part numbers should be:

Front Wheel Arch Liner (OSF) 6000073748
Front Wheel Arch Liner (NSF) 6000073747

So it’s worth remembering that the front wheel arch liners came in four parts originally. These above seem original, the copies lack a lot of the small detail and are sometimes one big part.

I ordered and picked up my front left wheelarch liner from my local Renault dealer this week! No need to order from France (at least, not yet!)



I'll need to go over the flash lines with a stanley knife, but other than that, all looks good!
