    I have noticed a few SQ7's with the 22" wheels have a bit of black plastic wheel arch trim front and rear. I haven't been able to find it on cars prior to MY 2018 and my MY2017 SQ7 doesn't have them. Are they for all Q7 2018 as a measure against some warranty issue, or are they just for cars with 22" wheels ordered from factory?

    its hard to get a picture, but you can just see the front arch one on the right of this picture. There are similar ones at the rear as well. My main concern is that as I plan on fitting 22" wheels next spring, should I be looking to fit these trims to prevent damage to the paint. Do any other 22" (or less) shod (S)Q7 owners have these trims?

    Hi
    Yes the plastic wheel arch trim was on the MY17
    In fact all the SQ7 with 22" wheels have this

    Due to the wider rims the trim stops the paint from getting shot blasted with gravel and rain

    Cool. Thanks for clarifying. I'll order a set from the dealer. It looks like they simply clip on.

    If you can, I'd appreciate a photo under the front and rear wheel arch to show the clip positions and number of clips.

    Many thanks.

    Do you have the part number for this trim? I’m in the US and dealers here can’t find that part.

    It might be because the European 22" wheels aren't available in the US.
    Either way, here are the parts you need.

    My bits haven't arrived yet. They are in the way. I think it's two clips per wheel arch, but I will find an OEM fit car to check first before I fit mine.
