Def worth having a look on ebay, I got mine on there. Cost me £60 for the arches and then found a good low priced body shop to spray them for another £60, £120 total compared to Pugs £175. You could still probably find them cheaper. They are easy to fit too.
If you want I'll get the Ebay Id of the seller I got mine from so that you can see if he has more and you know you can trust him?

This is the guys ebay account: contact.ebay.co.uk/ws1/eBayISAPI.dll?ReturnUserEmail&requested=stevo_at_work&frm=1236He isn't selling anything at the moment but you could contact him and ask if you could buy some off him, even say that he sold some to your mate (me ) for £65 including delivery and wondered if he would be up for doing the same deal direct through paypal and avoiding listing fees on ebay yadda yadda. Hope this helps!

only problem will be that you wont be protect under eBays rules and regulations.......so risky? so you have no come back if you pay and he dont supply.......just a thought!
aj, did you buy the normal wheel arch extensions? because there are different ones for the LX/GLX models from the XS/XSi/GTi models (i think?!)? a very silly question/kinda favour? can u measure the distance between you wheel arches (diameter from line to line where the front wing meets the lower panel) and please and let me know so i know which ones i should get for me car? thanks in advance!

I actually got the arches not through ebay, I came second and the first place person dropped out after the bid had gone through, the seller contacted me and we arranged it all out-with ebay. He sent me an invoice through pay pal which was handy. I'd say hes pretty trustworthy! Yeah there are two different arches, ones for the sports arches and ones for normal arches, I got the normal ones. As for me measuring my arches, I'm not sure exactly what parts your wanting me to measure! Will be happy to do so for you though. The sports arches have more definition in them, you can see they stick out that wee bit further (see the pic below that i made, hope its clear enough) The Pug accessories list states that the wider arches are for "XSI/D Turbo/GTi/CC and SE" - part no 96851R and the thiner ones (the ones I have) are for "All other models" - part no 96851Q If you want to be extra sure you could ask your dealer if you have the wider arches, or give Kev your reg and he could look it up for you on his computer at Pug?

yeh i gave kev my reg, he said he can get them but didnt mention which ones they were.......gonna get the SMART repairer people to spray for me (cost less).....sorry when i say measure, do u know where the front wing sits on the lower part of the wing, this then creates two lines where they meet, from line to line so the diameter of the arch horizontally.
ta mate!

Hey again, I think you'wll ahve the non flared ones like me too. The actual size/diameter of the arches doesn't change between the two, all that is different is that the sports ones are bent around 1cm further out from the body of the car. Is this the size you're wanting me to measure

I would have thought the back ones would go out further too but I'm not 100% sure so couldn't say, your best bet would be to do as you say and ask Peugeot, ask them what part number of arches they would order for your car.
You got any pics of your car?
