The plastic clips that attach the wheel arch trim that were produced by car-pak are discontinued and can no longer be found anywhere. Most of mine broke during removal.
I have found a DIY solution that is close enough, and works great:


Original eagle clip is in the left side of the image

clip the wings off of one side and then they are a very close match to the original clips.
I thought I would share this to help anyone else looking for these things.
