Wide Arches With Front/rear Bumpers

Recommended Posts

Andy F

Hi people

 

Am look at getting rid of the side trims off my track gti, looked a couple of sets of the wide arches on ebay. which have added llinks below.

 

I wondered if anyone recommended these/other archs as these are both GRP. :)

 

Also wondered if there are any front and rear bumpers i could then use without the red trim and possibly spray body colour?

 

Thanks

The second set are also very good quality.

 

I've bought 5 different sets of arches over the last couple of years (none were the ones sold by Bensonmi) and the £60.00 ones offered the best cost/quality combination.

do you have to space out the front wheels to fill these arches? Or use wider wheels?

The wider ones would be difficult to fil without at least 7" wide rims & ET0 imo.
