    PIc request: Chrome arches...

    Yes these are ugly I know but I am having fitment issues with my wheels and one option is wider fenders. I would would cut away the lip on my current fenders, paint the chrome arches body colour and next to my wheels they would go unnoticed.

    So I'm after any pictures anyone has of these so I can get an idea how much further they stick out than stock. I only need another 1/2 an inch or so.

    TIA

    *edit*

    Also can anyone tell me if they are all the same? Or are some different shapes to others?..

    Try some IX flares or maybe some BMW or IE flares.

      Don't make your car ugly so that you can fit "cooler" wheels.

      Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

        early model = no ix flairs
        Not to mention have never ever seen an ix in Australia, they just don't exist.
        I don't want to go down the road of IE style flares, they are way too big and obvious (with exposed rivets) for what I want, I just need something small and subtle.

          How exactly will fitting four small wheel arches make my car "ugly" ?

            Well then you better get out a fender roller and a heat gun and start stretching the fuck out of your fenders.

                Mine had them when i first got it. And IIRC they was attached to the lip of the fender and 1/4. But they lasted about 5min after i backed the car off of the trailer. I doubt if these pictures would help, but they are better then none.

                  Stretch the tires or roll out the fenders, no need to add anything on.
