Default classic arches,i wish i could have...

i would love to have arches on my classic like the arches on the second gen impreza,they would look great,id like arches like that or similar to a golf rallye on my classic,the old school rallying look.

have been looking at chopping up a front wing and arear quater panel from a 2nd gen and cutting/welding to make it fit on a 2nd hand arch and trying to do the same to the rear quater and door on my car?

reckon it could work?or would just be aggro and look like dog **** lol and i should leave well alone?

just go with the s13 stylee arches??

opinions and pics welcome.

ps.not too keen on the 22b kit,looks nice from some angles and horrid from others,and looks nasty on a 4 door.

cheers gents

Not sure but unfortunately unless you are a bit of a Photoshop pro I think there will only be one way to find out. It would be different that's for sure

Take this man outside and shoot him in the face in front of his family!


The 22b is one of the sexiest shapes of any car that has graced our roads



On a serious note we offer a few arch combinations you may like, if you can send us an email I'll send you some pics.

I actually was thinking about doing this myself about 6 months ago and made this photoshop then. Looks ok i reckon, would need some serious wheel spacers though. Colour isn't perfect but you get the idea. Cars changed a lot since this pic though:

^^ Now thats the first wide arch impreza that i have seen that i like.

Darren your's looks ok ish, obviously not finished yet, but really not keen on the front bumper, could do with some contours, too flat for my liking.
