Hey, i have a City with the standard arches, and i was just wondering if they're easy to take off and put back on. As i'm gonna try and make as much of a Mk1 replica as i can, and i just want to see if i like the no arches look, before i buy the chrome lip.
Cheers, Meady.

they could be attached with rivets at the min which u need to drill out, easy enough or they could be screwed in which is even easier
u can use new rivets or screws to put them back on, u'r gonna be left with holes once they're off tho

Even if you've removed the arches? Is there still a lip beneath the flared arch?
