What Arches Are These

[tezza 0]

dumb question but does anyone have any idea?

 

 

thanks in advance guys

They look like the rivet on Rallye Style Arches that I had on my car for a while. They're black fibre glass, a little larger than regular 'bonded' Rallye arches and appear on eBay from time-to-time for around £100.

thanks for the reply buddy. problem is i was thinking that but these seem to have a different lip. is that just me that thinks that?

[Batfink 201]

i'd say they have been extended further, maybe the rules state that the wheels have to be within the wheelarches...

[arnold naber 2]

looks like mines... those are rallye arches +1"

 

(i have complete wings with intergrated arches the part missing is a small peice that is attachted to the bumper)

thanks guys. but see like your pic hasnt got a lip on the arch whereas they are lipped in the image. is it just the angle?

[Chris H 10]

I think the lip is actually a seperate piece of mudflap material stuck on to make it wider...seen that done quite a few times

oh right, i assumed it came as a kit obviously not then. something to look into.

 

got any more pics simon?

No i think Chris means mudflap material (kaylan or similar) is attached to arch to protrude outwards, covering the wheels as they stick out further than the arch itself, which is often not allowed.

I *think* thats Wardy??'s car from here, maybe PM him and ask him what the crack is?

[Baz 421]

Nope it's not, it's some POS that Rub1Off supposedly built with some wild power claim from an 8v.

[MerlinGTI 3]

ah, fair do's

any idea if he was someone on here or not would like to see a few more pics etc of the car.

That's a mean looking devil !! Who's car is that ?

[Arahan 4]

Im sure I saw it in a for sale ad somewhere recently, it was this topic about the arches that reminded me when i saw the ad! Can't remember for the life of me where now though!

thats the add. surely its not running that kind of power?

[Para 82 2 Cars]

What a monster I love it ! Those arches are only available on ebay ?

[welshpug 1,657]

perfectly feasible to be running that kind of power from an Mi16, didn't sound particularly well setup though, wouldn't idle for toffee

Baz, please stop with comments like these, as they're misinformation, if nothing else.

Ahh, i do apologise, must be another one i was getting confused with then, as there was certainly an 8v black one with a wild power claim for sale a while back, and more than that!
