Wiiiiide arch part 2 (the messy bit!)

After i finished this:



i stood back and thought wtf?!

But then i did this:



and then i put these on:



and i stood back and thought.... mmn



Still very far from finishing

 

Oh, and those are *only* 9x16's, the idea is to make 10x17's et 10 fit on the back, and have plenty of suspension travel, whilst having the car decked to the ground

 

EEEEEEEErrrrrrr PHATTBH

 

WOW WOW WOW i loveeeeeeeeeee that shud look well sweet

 

rich that is phat

 

looks good rich. glad to see it's coming along

 

looking good m8, keep the pics coming...........

 

cool. much less pikey. get rid of the gash bumbers tho

 

theres no way id cut arch like that, i couldnt bring myself to hurt my car
[:^(]

very brave mate

gonna look sweet

 

PHAT AS f**k!!! its gonna look sweet as f**k, you decided on a colour scheme yet mate?

 

What size rim you gonna run at the front Richard?

A 7", so you can get it as low as the rear?

 

i assume you have just cut offthe 'tags' you made on theon the arch??

 

no i havent tim, i bent them up and im going to weld a smooth plate over them to create a flat face for the plastic arch to sit on.i can then bond it to that and itll be strong. of course, the plastic arches will be smoothed and painted in a colour of my choice

 

omg! that looks like one hello of a lot of work! will be worth it though

 

1st_dub - yeah thats a front drivers side arch on the rear pass side - needed severe chopping and im gonna construct a face to sit against the metal so its all nice and solid.

My custom sideskirts are going to mate up perfectly with the side of the arch, so it looks factory..... but ultra phat

Oh, and ive increased the negative camber slightly on the rear by putting in a plate between the bottom 2 bolts on the rear stub axle. Handles amazingly well for just 1.5mm of adjustment...

 

Looks the tits. Any better pics of the rims you've got on? What are they?

 

Looks good Rich - a proper job, and the only way to go low at the rear with wide rims. Personally, I think you should keep the late 90spec side sills tho as it would look sweet all colour coded.

 

those are my rims, which are for sale in fact!

9x16 and 7.5 x16 brock b2's
