Yup thats what you need aright, just be careful tho cus when i went to put my skirts back on, they had either shrunk or the replacment arch wasnt exactly the same shape as the OE one, i just took a hammer too it and bent the botton corner in a tad.

Just thought it was worth a mention, maybe test your skirts for legth befor your man gets heavy with the welding..

All the best Justin

Thanks for the heads up. Friday I'm taking the car to his workshop and the car is going to be completely stripped except the dash, to see if there are any other offending areas. :afro:
