Hello if you look in the aftermarket supplier thread, there's plenty of links that should help. They usually weld on ;-?

1991 340 1.7 GL, 64k, 5 door, petrol blue (Deep Blue).
1988 360 2.0 GLE, 140k, 5 door, ocean blue metallic (Blue Bess).
1989 340 1.7 GL, 108k, 3 door (Red Ness).

Is it for rust repairs or just for looks?

If it is rust repairs sticking plastic over it is a bad idea as it will just eat away at th metal meaning eventually you are going to have to deal with it and it will be a lot more expensive than it is now.

If it is just for looks then ebay there are plenty of aftermarket arches on there that can be cut to suit or might even fit straight away.
