If you mean the SP Arch extensions then you wont need to touch the wheel arch liners. If your changing the whole wing then you will.

They may be slightly to big, but should still fit.

Either to be honest mate I've got 306 alloys and on the front the edge of the tyre goes out past the arch. I think they may be patent parts rather than OE as its had a front end repair so the arches maybe skinner than normal.
iguess the arch extensions would be more cost efficient as they would cost as much to colour code unless i find a donor car the same colour as mine.

There pretty thin anyway so I wouldnt be worrying about that. + the 306 has a different offset hence why they stick out slightly. My mates does the same. If your changing the whole wing (the first picture) then you will need to change the wheel arch liners. However if you only want whats in the second picture then they will just clip straight on without changing anything.
