this is the same but with the flange cut off so they need bonding on

I'll look at the rears for the 4dr next then the bolt on style

I will be very interested in the smaller bolt on style for the 4 door any rough time scale for these???

Small arches

Do you still need to cut n reweld the wings as with the larger arches? The 'bolt on' look, looks meaner to me...would be interrested in a set for my 97 wagon. if spacers only were needed as new wheels are out the question I'm afraid. Current wheels, 17, 7jj, 47offset. Price?
