I was going to make something along these lines using the classic arches , trouble is they have to sit so low to keep below the upper bodyline . not a problem but having them so low means they're not wide enough for the wheelarch so as usual it's not going to be that simple .




So it looks like I'll be making some from scratch , the up side is it means I can make something different to the classic one's if need be , a few people pm'd these pics to me , any thoughts welcome before I start

Last ones, simple but look the bolx. Unless your car is at standard ride height in which case they'll look silly!

I would stick with the classic style ones you already have Daren, and alter them to go over the body line if you can...

All IMO of course, but what do I know...

The classic style would be easier to do and suit road cars better I agree ,as Paul says the others look the nuts but probably only on a dedicated track car ( come on one of you build a car for them to go on ) .
