Default Wheel arch Lining?

I have been doing repairs to my front bar and noticed my wheel arch lining isn't in a good way.

So my question..can i rip the stuff out? as i am sure it's gonna be a fortune to buy new stuff from ford and probably not worth it..or is it?

Cheers

Cam

It has a lot of wiring and crap behind it, and the aerial motor and everything, so I think if you take it out all that stuff might suffer. Just grab one from the wreckers would be your best bet.

I got my garage to fit 1 RH wheel arch liner and complete stone tray (after ripped them out spinning the car up and down an embankment - long story) and the parts were like only $100 or so?

Yeah its 50 odd dollars just bought one myself.
Never leave the guard liner of as the stones throw up under there and put little pimples in the tops of your guards,thats what they are mainly there for the stones.
