Relay Van wheelarch holes...

[pjay]

We have a Citroen Relay PVC, there are square holes around the front and rear wheel arches, presumably to fit wheel arch extensions but the holes are left bare.

Can't find any square grommets to stick in the holes, does such a thing exist?

Failing that, I was thinking about some black Sugru moulded to shape?

Any other ingenious ideas to blank off the holes as I don't like how they look?

TIA

Pete

I would be interested in a solution too, thanks for posting this.

They are for mounting mudflaps.

Pardon our interruption...

Google "Square push rivets". Lots of images to choose from. Although most are probably unsuitable there are a few options including chrome .

No the mudflaps fit lower down see his first picture. I think the6 are for the black wheel arch covers that some vans have.

They are the same as the ones in the lower holes.

Thanks but they would still have holes and look unsightly, i'm after something that blanks the holes off completely

That's how the vans come out of the factory, when we had a van with the Fiat front end it had black plugs like that in a white body.

As tonyidle said, spoilt for choice if you Google 'Square rubber plastic grommets'
