rusty arches
« on: 23 April 2008, 18:18 »
i've found a low cc mk1 and it has rusty arches as shown in the picture, i was just wondering if its possible to save this as it looks like you could push it all through? the guy who is selling says all the arches would need replaceing and euro car parts would have the lot for 55 quid howerver i'm sure the rear arches are part of the body and you cant take them off seperatly? i think hes on about the plastic arches!


what do you rekon doctor?

what he'll mean is ECP will sell the arch part panels, you have to cut out the rot on the rears, then line up the part panel, weld it in place, then filler, sand, paint. not like the fronts wings which just bolt on and off.

not straight forward and not cheap if you cant do ti yourself...


noble tuned - and still not fast enough!
