I'm running the Chargespeed arches, but with all the kit.

I have seen Chargespeed arches fitted with other front/rear bumpers, but I think they need a bit of modification...

Also, you need to take into account the extra width, and how you are going to acheive this, ie: with your wheels (spacers?),or new wheels (35mm offset?) and also the rear arches should be cut away to allow your car to sit properly, without tyre/arch issues..

Neil.

the rears are to be cut away anyway, i have a few niggly orange patches, they have not bubbled, but the rust has started, its an 11 year old car, and there is no way on earth im having new rear arches welded in for a stupid cost for a clanky old car.

dont mind hacking the orange bits out, sealing up and fitting the covers over the outside, i can paint them for free

will be painting the full car again in the summer as i have a few little door dings and stuff to sort
