Louis.... Get it Slammed, and Keep them arches on.

I have a black golf, was debating on de-arching them myself but i decided I'm keeping mine on, and dropping it on its arse when i get some cash saved. Will look proper nice with my wheels i'll be getting next week..... Keep an eye on the Picture section... and then drool.

Having this very same argument with myself. arch or de-arch that is the burning question. the solution i have come up with isssssssss............keep em and blend em into the body and blow them over so to colour code. just giving it a smooth but still keeping an agressive stance, well hopefully. 

[VR6-Joe]

You don't mean smooth them into the body do you?

The arches are plastic, the car is metal, fibreglass or filler will crack...

If you want that effect.

Remove the arches and have the metal pulled and flared, that way you have the same width, without the gayness.

I accidently just ever so slightly scrapped my arch on me GTi on a van the black bit is now blue but it just wipes completely off with a wet cloth....for that reason i would say keep em! and also thats how the car should look lol
