I'm very tempted to get a set, they look wider at the sides than my std dealer fit ones.

the std dealer ones in my opinion are far to hard & not flexible enough. I like my Rally Armors to be honest

+1

and one of mine has the black film coating come off now. I had planned to wrap them all in Carbon Fibre.. but now I've seen the above I might buy the PVC ones that flex a bit more.

I agree with the hardness comment Rob however they do seem to be styled to fit better than the generics I've fitted to other cars. I think I'll live with mine till I rip one of them off.......which shouldn't be too long the way mrs kgt launches off the drive.

Think I'll get a set like Hughy's, they seem wider on the side for the fronts which protect the car better.

seen these though
http://www.evobits.co.uk/index.php?r...product_id=185

anyone also seen them on a car?

they look a lot of fixing for it, do they just self tap screw into the wheel arch plastic?

quite like the look though.

I have the rally armour flaps fitted to my saloon and they are excellent. no drilling of the the existing arches.

they are a bit more expensive but are worth it. Some of the ones I have seen fitted for £60 are cheap crap.

I here what you are saying parmin, but believe me if these where cheap crap then they would not be on my car, no doubt not has good as the rally armour ones but a close second IMHO.....

Good question Phil as the Rallya rmour look to finish a bit low on the arch, but it might just be the pics. Hope somebody has got some big red rally flaps on a white car to see

Aaron dude, the RA's are on so no excuses know, get the turni's on that car!!!!

Side one, will sort the I trader out for the cargo net. Thing is last time I did an I trader rating it required the link to the for sale ad which wee don't have so not sure i can carry it out. You may have to set one up and then mark it as sold a few minutes later.

Cheers bud

Haha, trust me they are on the list, the long list that is. Was planning to fit last week but want to seal them with a few coats of poorboys first and ran out of time!

May try this week but hopefully it's exhaust time!

Ref the itrader, use the thread below.

Can anyone with an aftermarket exhaust please post up a shot of the rear (of their saloon) and confirm what size tail pipes they have, been looking at the H&S which come with 3.5" pipes but just want to make sure they fill the hole well enough as a lot of the US companies use 4" tail pipes.

Thanks
Arron

Nice one arron will get it done later when I'm on a laptop and not a phone.

Regarding the back box. If it helps I've got the Hayward and Scott back box on my hatch. Should be one or two pictures kicking around on here as a reference its the 2.5 system which I think the pipes are 3.5" on the exists, quick look on their site will confirm

Yep, its 3.5", some pics I have seen of it fitted though it looks a little on the small side compared to others I've looked at, but then is 4" too big!

don't forget. The prodrive pipes on the quad exhaust on the 330s are only 3.5" each. I bet 4inch on each pipe would look sick.
