Plastic wheel arches

Has anyone tried the plastic wheel arches that are on eBay. Or even the chrome type
My wheel arches are solid, just like the look of them, but can't afford the proper ones.
Thanks

You talking about arches to go over the arches, or liners to go inside?

I've fitted both & think they are an improvement, but would recommend a good coat of wax oil before fitting.

Yes I know you get what you pay for, but I don't like the genuine ones anyway, especially where the wrap over the top of the front wheel arch, anyway I want to buy the ARB awning of Jed @ CVC , so that's where my money is going.
