Wink Made a start... getting wide in the ***!!! :)

Hi All,

My mate free'd up sometime yesterday and today to get my saloon arches in my wagon.

Took longer than we had hoped as there was a surprising amount of grot in the inner arches.

2 tease pics still work to be done will update my project thread with more ASAP but they will be finished in primer Monday

Cheers jura

From the second we put them up to the car I knew they would look cool! Can't wait for the to be finished just got better and better the more he did.

They have a little step around the lights just like a saloon.

Bumper needed modding which we didn't expect but nothing major

I have also rolled and flared them a little to help with the wheels

I've seen wide arch conversions done using aftermarket saloon kits, but as you say, this is the first 'OE' conversion
