what i mean is, if u look at the arches it looks like the clipper arches have been put on over standard arches and then smoothed. like 2 tier or something.  nothin wrong with the sale just wondered why the arches are like that.

have a look at my yellow cab in the sig and u will see the difference  ;)

how much did u pay for urs then 007??  i got mine with 10 months mot for a grand, full leather interior and a very rare colour (big bonus its a gti  :P)

i see what you mean? it probably didnt have a orignal clipper kit on it! hey good eyes ;D

a grand and its got leather and it that yellow cant rember the name of it but its rare! you got a steal!

oh i got my car for ?800 squid with 5 months mot! no rot at all no welding has ever been done! the only problem was the hood and im getting a monhair hood for it! aint really spent much onit part from the alarm and tonneau cover!
The reason its so cheap:
the guy just did not want it no more so i got it on the cheap!

it does appear to have the arch cover stickking out too far but it is the clipper kit. the reason your looks differnt vix is it is not a standard clipper kit the front bumper is totally different in the air dam area it looks more like a zender kit on yours in that respect

i was saying that although the arches have been smoothed, to me it looks like they havent been smoothed properly.

my kit is a fully smoothed bbs kit so yes the front skirt is very different? 8)
