Will this Rear Wheel Arch Protection Kit fit my Vanagon from 1985?

Yes, this kit is designed to fit Vanagon models from 1980 to 1991, including your 1985 Vanagon. It works for both 2WD and 4WD versions, covering Westfalia Camper and Multivan models as well.

How easy is it to install the protection decals myself?

Installation is straightforward! First, remove any old decals and clean off residue. Then, apply the new decals using your fingers dipped in a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water—this helps avoid fingerprints and ensures a smooth application. Many customers find it a simple DIY job that takes minimal time.

Will this kit effectively protect my rear wheel arches from paint damage?

Absolutely. These high-quality aftermarket decals provide a durable barrier against road debris and scratches, helping to preserve your Vanagon's paint. Customer reviews consistently mention the kit’s effectiveness in protecting the arches and keeping them looking good longer.

Are these decals exactly the same size as the original factory ones?

The decals fit very well but may have slight size differences compared to factory originals. This is normal for aftermarket replacements, but customers report that the fit is excellent and does not affect the protection or appearance negatively.

Why should I choose this Rear Wheel Arch Protection Kit over dealer options?

This kit offers the same protective benefits and fitment as dealer parts but at about 50% less cost, providing excellent value. Plus, it's sold as a convenient pair and comes with clear installation guidance, making it a budget-friendly and practical choice for Vanagon owners.

Vos passages de roue arrière s’élargissent juste assez pour ramasser pas mal de débris de la route. Sans protection supplémentaire, la peinture finit peu à peu par être criblée de petits impacts. Protégez-la !

Les autocollants de protection contre les projections de vos passages de roue arrière semblent complètement usés après plus de 15 ans sur la route ? Nous proposons désormais des ensembles de remplacement de qualité supérieure, compatibles avec le marché, pour 50 % de moins que le prix catalogue des concessionnaires.

L’installation est simple : Une fois les anciens autocollants et les résidus d’adhésif soigneusement retirés, mouillez vos doigts avec 1 part d’alcool isopropylique pour 3 parts d’eau (pour éviter les traces de doigts sur l’autocollant) et appliquez l’autocollant sur l’aile. Voilà ! Vous pouvez passer au projet suivant !

Vendu par paire. Un seul kit suffit par véhicule.

Arrived promptly, as described and expected. Installation is a bit fiddly and time will tell how much protection they are.

easy install

Somewhat difficult to remove the old ones, time consuming but not difficult. New ones install super easy and look great. I should have done this years ago

Added protection

Just painted my Vanagon and wanted an added way to protect the paint. Does the job well.

they are cut perfecty

They fit very well.

Not exactly the same as the factory ones.

Let’s start establishing im a purist, if your van doesn’t have the old ones you don’t have any problem because you’re not going to see the difference, in my case i still have the old ones and i compared them, the new ones are way bigger than the factory ones that doesn’t matters to a normal person (not my case) other than that they are made with a good quality material.
