  • Unlucky DS3R

    Well just over a week of talking about how expensive the carbon fibre trim is to replace on the racing, I've gone and ripped a piece off the passenger side . The worst part is that it's the second piece of trim to come off the passenger side this week, had the car repaired at the end of last week because of a dent and scratches along the door and wasn't told that they'd removed the baguette from the door which lucky dropped off while the car was parked on the drive die to being stuck back on poorly. Booked into Citroen on Monday to have that put back on properly only to go and curb the left side of my car tonight ripping the entire bottom part of the trim off. Completely gutted

    Believe even though its annoying, the bottom part of the trim is easily re-fitted

      As Andy says, unless it's badly damaged, you should hopefully be able to just replace the clips to re-fit.

        If theyre the same as the 155, they are little square clip things that secure the bottom skirt. Mine wen over a (Unseen) traffic cone and ripped the bottom skirt off. Think you have to buy a whole bag of clips is the only problem. Now, incidents usually come in three's.................

              Car went in today and told that because of a scratch on the baguette (ironically caused by it falling off) they won't put it back on for me...asked them how much the sticky plastic stuff is so that i could just do it myself and told that they didn't have any of that either. Other than that they just wanted to quote me for an entirely new baguette.

              Really not impressed with my local dealer at all.

              Also thanks for the replies but i'll have to replace the other lower trim piece as it's covered in scratches.
