    Default problem with airbag covers: clio2

    hello everyone,

    my car was put outdoor for a longtime so i found some problems in the car's interior especially with plastics like door handle, and airbag covers.
    for the door handle i changed them successfully but i want some idea with the airbag covers for the driver and the passenger.
    any idea please?
    photos are attached.

    Hi
    This is common with old cars. The hard plastics will retain its strength but the soft plastics which is supposed to "break" open in accident will become hard and develope cracks and eventually break. The only solution to this is try finding the plastic covers online or complete airbags from some scrapped car. If you can try, wrap them with a similar textured rexin.

    Either get another set of airbags or see if local
    ”invisible repair company “ can do anything

    vehicle wrapping. Bag will blow it out no problem
