I do not know the exact name of the plastic disc behind the rear brake disc.
Both are touching my brake discs. One has some 'bubbles' on the surface. The other has only touched the edge of the disc so it has some slight cut.
Question is if I could try to heat them up with a heat gun and bend them back a bit or shall I order a new pair from Renault? (does anyone has a set for sale in good condition?)
If I use the heat gun won't they just bend back once the brake discs get hot again?
Have you had such a problem? Any advice, solution is very welcome.
Many thanks

Thanks in advance.
The 3 fixing bolts are in place and seem to be ok.

They are so thin, you should be able to just bend them back or straighten them up with just your hands. :agree:

Question is how long it'll last. :confused:
