While replacing the rear discs I thought I'd just check behind the rear wheel arch liner for any buildup of crap, afterall, all of the undertrays are off for inspection too..
Look what I found! :what: A heavy buildup of road grime between the arch liner and the bodywork!
This is the drivers side, the passenger side was worse, with the buildup almost reaching up to the large grommet. Second pic is how it looks now all cleaned up
I don't imagine the OPC or Indie's check for this very often.. :dont know:
Also check the arch lip going over the top of the wheel too. This isn't a very well treated part of the car yet it gets a lot of crap thrown at it. I'll be giving mine a rub down, paint and underseal in the future.
This may have been covered many times, but I've not seen it and if it helps someone...
