In both the Lada Granta Sedan and the Liftback, by default the wheel arches are not treated with anti-corrosion mastic. Owners independently eliminate deficiencies by applying bitumen and installing fender liners on the Granta Liftback (Sedan).
The process is not at all complicated, it will take no more than half an hour. However, the time may drag on if you do not first clean the car from dirt and dry it.

Preparatory stage before installing fender liners on the Lada Granta Liftback
You will need:
- bitumen mastic 0.9 kg (can);
- a flat-head, Phillips-head screwdriver;
- drills at “4”;
- metal screws, tapered;
- drill;
- lockers (fender liners);
- wheel wrench, jack;
- additional lighting if we carry out work in conditions of limited visibility.
Installation of lockers on Lada Granta
After the products have been purchased, you can prepare for direct installation. If you do not have any skills in car repair or replacing worn parts, you should contact professionals at a service station.
If the motorist is ready to do all the work himself, then the correct installation of lockers on the Grant will be carried out according to the following instructions:
1. The car is raised with a jack and the wheel is removed.
2. The standard fasteners on the old fender liner are unscrewed, and the worn locker is removed.
3. The new product is inserted under the arch and secured in the standard holes.
4. The coincidence of the fender liner and the edge of the wheel arch is checked. If necessary, the locker is leveled.
5. The screws are tightened until they stop. The wheel is being installed.
Installation does not take long and does not require much effort. But you need to remember about preliminary cleaning of the arch from residual debris.
To solve the problem, use a small brush to remove dust and dirt. Also, reinforcement should not be carried out using additional fasteners. Because screwing them in will damage the body and compromise its integrity.
Thus, the lockers purchased for the Lada Grant will last a long time. They will be able to protect the car's wheel arches from damage from pebbles, debris, and even from the compounds that cover roads in the winter. And the high quality of the products will allow you to forget about replacing fender liners for the next 5 years or more.

Sequence of actions when installing fender liners on the Lada Granta Liftback
- We wash the wheel arches of the car, clean them from the accumulation of dirt, sand, crushed stone, and dry them well.
- To speed up the drying process, we use a household hair dryer and other heating devices.
- We jack up the car, unscrew the bolts, remove the wheel and mudguard.
- We treat the wheel arch cavity with bitumen mastic. If desired, apply several layers.
- We apply a plastic fender liner and mark the holes for drilling with chalk.
- We drill holes at intervals of 10 - 12 cm on the front arc. There are no restrictions on the back or sides.
- We apply it and fix it with self-tapping screws, having previously lubricated them with paint or bitumen mastic to prevent corrosion.
This completes the DIY installation of front lockers on the Lada Granta Liftback. By analogy, we attach the rear fender liners.
If you want to further reduce the noise of the wheel arch, buy isocryl or felt to cover the outer perimeter of the locker.
Liquid lockers or fender liners without screws
Lately it has become popular to fill in liquid lockers instead of installing plastic. This is a mastic based on bitumen, isocryl, and polystyrene.
After application, we obtain wheel arch protection and noise reduction. The main disadvantage of lockers without drilling is their peeling off from the metal surface if dirt is not cleaned properly.
Choosing the type of fender liner
The wheel arches of a car are perhaps the most vulnerable part of the body, subject to corrosion. And if the Lada Granta body is treated with a special anti-corrosion compound to protect it from the aggressive environment of modern cities, and the bottom of the body has protective linings, then the car arches are not protected by anything. They are constantly subject to mechanical damage and are in direct contact with water, which, together with temperature changes, has a destructive effect on both the wings and the car body as a whole. Let's figure out which fender liners to choose and how to install them correctly.
Plastic
There are a considerable number of factory-made products on sale for the Lada Granta, both sedan and liftback, because they are the same. They are made from high-quality and reliable material (plastic or high-strength polyethylene). But you can often come across counterfeit security elements that are made from recycled materials - they are cheaper, but wear out very quickly, often fall off their fastenings and do not cope with their main task. They can be distinguished by their hardness (low-quality products can be determined literally by touch - the material is very soft). Having saved on lockers, you will most likely encounter the fact that in the cold the installed set will begin to crack and collapse, and in the warm season they will develop a very unpleasant smell: which indicates the cheapness of the plastic from which they are made.
High-quality fender liners for the Lada Granta are made of heat-strengthened plastic and are slightly more expensive than the nameless set on the market. They are sold in pairs or as a set for all 4 wheel arches of the car. There is another type of wheel arches - liquid. We'll talk about them further.
With or without sound insulation
Here we think everything is clear, the former protect exclusively the body from various influences, while the latter also have sound insulation, which can significantly reduce the noise level, especially when driving on a bad road.
Liquid
Liquid fender liners are a special composition that is applied to the surface of the wheel arch. The versatility of this material allows it to be used not only to treat the inside of the wings, but also other parts of the body exposed to aggressive external environments and mechanical damage. This material has excellent sound insulation characteristics and perfectly protects the body from fine water spray and small gravel. Liquid lockers are not without their disadvantages, so as not to go into detail - we will only consider the main advantages and disadvantages.

Pros of using liquid lockers
- Impacts of stones on plastic material are absorbed better than in the case of plastic;
- To install these lockers on the Lada Granta, you do not need to drill the body;
- The surface area of protection is not limited to the wheel arches;
- The material is universal and can be used on almost any car.
Disadvantages of using liquid lockers
- Demanding on the cleanliness of the surface (before applying the composition, you will have to clean the surface until it shines, otherwise it will not stick);
- To apply the composition you will need a compressor with a sprayer, which in almost 100% of cases cuts off the possibility of self-application;
- The material is very plastic, which is why you will have to frequently inspect the integrity of the layer in the wheel arches. If this is not done, the situation may worsen;
- The practicality of using liquid lockers in the winter is a big question: the arch becomes clogged with snow, the layer is frozen over with ice, which has a negative impact on the suspension.

If you have the means, order filling with liquid, first thoroughly wash the wheel arches from dirt.
