R56 Front black fender coming off!
Front black fender coming off!
Arrghhhh Had Waldo just a week and noticed tonight the right front fender molding (the black part) was loose at the bottom. After investigating I see the 2nd clip from the bottom is broken, and the bottom-most clip is not engaged. I did get the bottom tucked back into the trim piece that runs from front wheel well to the rear wheel well, but it's a temporary fix at best.
I'm 200 miles from the dealer where I bought it (and 150 miles from ANY dealer). Seems like the piece is simply held on with clips all around. If I can get the new clips it seems simple enough to fix. I see how the clips are put on (seems like I just need to remove the fenderwell protector and it's easy to get to them). I'm going to call them tomorrow to see if they can just mail me a handful of the clips.Wonder if I'll have any luck?
I'm guessing that 2nd one has been broken since he got on the boat, and the bottom one just finally jiggled loose over the week of motoring.
Anyone else experienced this? Guess this is why the JD Power survey results are so bad!
