Anybody on this site run these?

what do they fit like?, they seam to fit well from the pictures i have seen, it also looks like they are not as wide as the 22b versions, and are modified so the standard side skirt fits on ok

they do look a bit more "sleek" in profile then the 22b copys i have been looking at, it seams a lot of yanks run them with standard rear arches

and wheels



i now have some on the way on a nice ship from yankland

StickyMicky

woohoo, has nobody got these ?

I do like the look of that, however if you look you can see the indented line from the door does not marry up with that of the wing nicely...

Where are they purchasable from?

StickyMicky

the car pictured is a 2.5rs from america and it has door mouldings fitted which is why it looks "wrong" the door mouldings are fitted underneath the indentation line



my drivers side indentation line has always been a little off, so has both my mates cars of different years

very strange, i even fitted a new drivers wing and it was still off

they are available on the American fleabay, IIRC the seller had 5 sets for sale.

they are about £300 plus shipping from dealers in this country.



fitted above with what looks like standard 2 door rear arches

If it's not a rude question fella, what did you pay all in?

Guess you'll get hit by import taxes.

should look great tho

StickyMicky

£240 deliverd

not sure how much a new wing is from the dealers ? but i needed one and the second hand front wing i bought a while back turned out to have slight damage when i buffed it up (will never buy a second hand wing again LOL)

so figured i will just replace both fronts with these badboy versions

StickyMicky

arrived in the country, VAT bill to clear on monday and i will have them with me on tuesday

StickyMicky

fitted here but NOT painted in these pictures (they are still in the white fibreglass gel coat)

They look really good

The fit at the sidelights doesn't look too good in the pics though

can be sorted by bodyshop easily tho at paint time, lookin good

StickyMicky

they are wider then the sidelights, the sidelights dont "blend" into the wings at all, although it looks like one of them is not screwed in properlly in the pics

StickyMicky

one side is allready painted by me this afternoon although they were not painted at all in these pictures

busy sorting a few dings/dents out on the passenger side and will paint he other side + bonnet tomorrow after work


painted the drivers side plus bootlid today

have to say that black car looks bloody superb,rear archer look wider than my typeR's tho

StickyMicky

the thing is, if you look at the do luck price list it lists everything on the car, except the rear arches, its very strange, i wonder of they just stretched the rears out before painting the car?

seams strange they offer everything on the demonstrator except the rear arch kit?

StickyMicky

all fitted and painted up, full paintjob apart from front bumper/roof

That's MY car in that picture

if ya want more pics, I can go and take a few for ya. The car is undergoing a bit of surgery. Probably I will remove the do luck fenders in favor of a more stock look.

if you do take 'em off are they for sale??

StickyMickey
where did your fogs come from??

StickyMicky

ummm they came from halfords i think??? (around £80 but this was years ago)

they actually have angel eyes built into them but i never wired them parts up


still considering my rear arches, do i leave them as is, fit the 22b rears, or the chargespeed rears
