Raer Wheel Arches
« on: 03 June 2025, 05:57:02 PM »
... the moth has started to get into the bottom of same. I observe that you can get pattern parts for the 9-5 rear wheel arches but it's obviously major surgery to cut out and replace. Anybody had this done? Is it worthwhile to keep the old barge (160,000 and counting) going for a few more years ?

I have the same issue with arches on my 9-3ss Aero.

Places like Saabits do sell replacement panels, and I would consider getting this done at some point, but not sure how much the whole job would cost. The panels are around £70 per side I believe.

I posted my symptoms and experience of getting this done @

The rear arches pictured, and sills, were done.
