Over Fenders?

Post by Cloud » 03 Apr 2008 12:01 pm

As my wings have had it and the rear arches are following I'm wondering where to get some over fenders (Much like Ali's.) checked the net to no avail....any ideas?

I bleieve the usual source of arch trims is a Mk2 golf GTI, plenty of them about, not sure how close they are to fitting a 300 series arch tho.

I seem to think Ali's were from a newer style Proton, I forget the model, but the one that was a joint project for handling with Lotus. Not sure quite how many you find in a scrap yard, but it may be worth enquiring how much they are new, might be in for a pleasant surprise.

Arch trims will only cover the rust up for so long ;)

I'm not saying don't fit them, but you might want to fix the rust first!

cheers

I reckon BMW 2002 turbo arches might look good, but I don't have any dimensions for them. Will try and find you a pic.
