Wide Wheel Arches

wiggsy2008 · Apr 12, 2014

Evening all,

I picked up some wide +2 wheel arches the other day. Now the issue is the only way I can see to fit them is to cover some of the fuel filler cap area.

Has anyone had this before? Also I am assuming the idea is to fit mark off the body and trip the body up to match?

I can get some pictures in the morning if that helps.

Can you offer it up and take a pic or perhaps what is the make?

Yes I will post a picture tomorrow. They look like a copy of the terrafrima ones

I think you can get away without encroaching on the Diesel cutout too much, though it mite depend on the make, my mates were fitted a bit higher then mine but squiffy to avoid the cutout, he had to re-fit them over the corner of the cut out to make them square.

Mine were fitted square only just touching the cutout.

sorry pics are a bit ****e, but you get the idea

Thanks for the pictures. The ones I have will cover even more than that. I will put them on tomorrow and take some pictures see what ideas we have.

Well I go them on in the end.

Overlap isnt too bad to be honest, worrying about nothing!

Ill get a better picture of the overlap tomorrow.
