Yea they did. Worth it though!

No I doubt it. So hard to choose arches! Tempted by a set of cosmics or some really cut down miglias. There isn't many, unless I modify them, that don't finish into the sill seams. As my car doesn't have sill seams it would look odd.

ive looked into Force Racing wheels before so i know what you mean. I think any arches you buy need some form of mod just due to the nature of how slightly different each mini is

Yea definitely. Especially as its a minus. Hence why I like the idea of cut down miglias.

Then I can get the body line perfect.

Cosmic arches are where it's at, the set I got on ebay should arrive this week.

Were they the ones that didn't get a bid on?

Was going to message the seller!

No it's another set that someone painted. I did considering buying the NOS set as well though.

Ahh, i saw them to.


Not sure if they would be wide enough though.

Those wheels are porn man! Good effort!

Also a vinyl roof is so much win! I want one on my red mini so bad but they rot the roof out. This is a problem you don't have though! Please get one!

Cheers dude, soon as saw them i had to have them! Love the SSR wheels, now i almost have some.

It is tempting, I've spent quite a bit of time getting the roof to a reasonable state though when i could have just left the cracks in it if i go vinyl. It would also have to go down to the body line so around all the windows as there is no seam. Which i'm not to sure about.

Plus i would imagine its quite a bit heavier than paint.

I always thought group 5's looked good on minus'/smoothed minis. Don't see cosmic arches much but should look good too
