Title: Wheel Arches
Post by: MadFox on 22 February 2004, 14:01

I want to get body coloured wheel arches and have them blended into the car.

Would it be best to fill the top and curve it out, or to pull off arches to the metal and then have them flared out more?

if you blend them then eventually the filler/paint will crack i recon.

or take the grain off the plastic arches instead of putting filler on. it is a lot of effort tho, just sanded a front big bumper and it took days! ;D
