Extended Arches Query was created by Blackout
Hi chaps I know there has been manyyy threads on extending the arches in the past. Most the threads are quite old. Has anyone fitted recently / got a good place to purchase from? Got an 05 and my special tracks are quite wide.. not sure how legal it is and getting a lot of spray in this current weather. Thanks!

Legally you shouldn't be able to see the actual tread of the tyre, as in that part that contacts the road in normal driving, when looking vertically down from the widest point of the wheel arch. It is acceptable to be able to see the side wall of the tyre. As to where you would find some Ebay might have something second hand or generic as for specific fitting I think user keithy periodically moulds sets and they look good too.

I do like those Chinese arches and they might give me enough space for

Yes to fit the ebay one's you will have to remove old arches and sill covers
Chop out the front arch also remove part of rear arch
this bit with the bumps in it
