my corsa is a mix n match kit, R & A front bumper combat 1 skirts and a rieger splitter on rear,was wondering about combar 2 wide arches for it.
do the replace the existing plastic arch?
and also are they about the normal size ish right near to where the arch and rear bumper meet? cos i dont want the arches to stick out loads near the bumper..
also what do u lot think they would look like on this.....




sorry that some are poor quality pics...

They will be hard work to smooth AND to prevent cracking, but I would do it if I was you.

It'll look wicked by the sound of it, and unique.

Take off your existing arches and cut 3 inches out the rear quarters and front wings, bond or rivet(countersink) arches on and run sealer round join. Then get the filler and fibreglass out and have a party with it.
Also be able to get some BIG ass wheels on too

Let me know how you get on mate

CUSTOMCORSA - how much would I look to pay to get my door cards re-trimmed if I provide the fadric.(3dr Corsa B)?

Cheers mate
