Thanks nicho! Arches are coming off and going in the bin! Look great and the last owner did a great job of them, but there made by using foam and poly filla, once they touch anything hard they crack and fall to bits. Ive repaired one arch twice, the third time I just left it! So now i've got these www.flatdoguk.com/defender-90-%2F-110-%2B50mm-set~112 .

Their far from a straight fit, but I've done the rear passenger side today and it looks mint and just as wide!! Wahoo.

You get much from the show??

Ok you slackers!

From this...


to this...


personally I actually prefer the ones the previous owner made, it's just a pity they are averse to any sort of impact :( :P :laugh:

I will of course need to paint over the gold bits when the weather warms up.

Eh up Rich, they come with self tappers mate. A lot like the Jeep Bushwacker type arches. They have them little plastic caps that clip over the heads so you can't see them.

If anything I've saved 2kg in silicone sealant that was holding the old arches on!
