During the snow, the car slipped slightly and the rear nearside wheelarch nudged the corner of the house. The brick has dug into the plastic trim and the rear part is coming away from the bodywork - presumably from being distorted when it hit the wall. As far as I can see it is just glued on.

Yes, I know this is the offside, but it's the only pic I have handy and the car is 50 miles away right now Smile

Any suggestions for resticking it? My only idea (short of bodging it with superglue) is that maybe warming the area with a hairdryer might soften the adhesive enough to do the trick.

Thanks in advance.

Its stuck on with 4 clips, no glue. Thats a rubber seal the black bit at the top. The clips are about £2 each from Peugeot. Ask for SP arch clips.

Great - thanks very much for that. Sounds much easier than messing around with adhesives! Let's hope it is.....
