My god what can i say apart from that looks fan bloody tastic.


That has to be the best WRC wide arch kit ive seen.

nearly all of them look nothing like WRC wings and quarters.

They are just way to tall.


Will you be producing this kit for sale or is it a one off.

Top Job there m8.

You get a big thoumbs up from me

That kit is one that we've made too mate , then is was copied by a certain company
I agree with you about the height of the wings , It has to be a compromise for a road car because of the ride height . To reduce that height you end up with massive gaps between the wheels and the arches .
This one's a compromise too I haven't taken the wing up at the front just widened it .
Thanks for your comments btw and in answer to your question I'm doing front bumpers now and front wings in the next couple of weeks . Rear end is going to be a little more involved , I will take molds eventually but the rear wings are made to go with a wrc rear bumper which is about 30mm shorter so I'll need to do the bumper as well .

that would be good with a bullit camera in it too

I thought it was the GPS reciever/transmitter for the car though rather than a camera pod on the WRC cars.

either way a replica will add to the rally car look
