Subject:Re: Wheel Well Trim Thingy...SYNCRO ONLY SPLASHGUARDS
From:Paul Connelly

Hey Chris/Dylan,

Thanks for the info.

I think I'll try drilling the "Splash Guards" out, and potting some bolts in
there with epoxy/Quick Steel/JB Weld and re fixing the existing one. I just
can't justify paying $100 for a 20 year old plastic trim piece that probably
is in no better shape than mine was.

Thanks Again,

Cheers, Paul.
