Just a quickie. Are the rear spats only riveted on or are the glued as well?
Thanks

I reckon mine were riveted. They seem to keep falling off...

Riveted, but possibly with a seam of either PU or silicone sealant between body and spat.

When mine go back on I’m going to look at using rivnuts to fix them which will allow for easier removing if needed in the future.

Optimism still abounds as it’s only 4 years since I removed them. Ask me again if it reaches 30 yearsMetBlue wrote: Sat Jan 24, 2026 18:06Liking the use of the word WHEN. Much better than IF.When mine go back on I’m going .......

That respray was only supposed to take a couple of weeks after I came to have a look how the doors came off! Can't even remember what year that was now! #jobcreep
