Missing clip in front wheel arch?

[MajorTom]

While tinkering with the car I noticed that a clip seems to be missing on both sides at the front end of the front wheel arches. Any ideas about what kind of clip or scrivet is supposed to sit there?

Mine's the same. Not sure it ever had one.

It looks like there’s something missing….


And it seems like a generic clip available on the Bay…

They do appear to come in a variety of lurid colours, grey, green, yellow….
I’m not sure if you have to source your own patent, fast-rusting screw, though, to hold the clamp together?

HTH

Cheers. Those clips seem a bit over complicated and over priced so I'll see what I can dig out. Might simply use some small zip ties if I don't find anything suitable.

Can't be super important for keeping things in place because I did some proper autobahn runs the other week and didn't lose any parts there.
