Having to trim my arches cause 60mm drop and my wheels dont work lol. Anyway ive taken the inside lining out from the arch, will i need to put this back in? What could happen if i dont?
Also whats the best stuff for gluing the arch back on? no more nails?

I'd put the liners back in or trim them to cover gaps into the engine bay to stop shite getting everywhere. I'd use sikaflex to bond them on with.

Trying to go the opposite way with mine.. Bought a Corsa which had the arches cut, engine bay is in a right state Whatever you do make sure it's sealed someway..

ok got hold of some tigerseal - dreading hacksawing the arches thou tbh i know im gonna fuck it up!
Im going to put the lining back in - ive bought some trim fixings that looks simular hopefully they will do the job in holding it in!
After cutting the metal from the wing arch and fitting the lining back in what is it going to hang on to? It used to hang onto the lip of the wing but im cutting that off lol. i might just have to bond everything

Personally I would use a Jigsaw over a hacksaw, it should be much easier. Saying that I haven't had to cut my arches.
Must be more than 60mm if you can't turn the wheels without rubbing
