ok been a while but I've finally got round to working on some narrower flares . I've made them 25mm wide and so far have made the fronts for the bond on set . Obviously 4 of these will do for the 2dr .
this is one with the mould flange left on so can be bolted on for a quick fix
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?
