I'm the same way with mine at the moment. I'd like to just go archless but my 5x10 ATS give quite a lot of poke and could provide a good opportunity to custom make some interesting arches.

If I remember you are going for a more muscle car look aren't you? If you are or not how about rolled arch style? Think they were done a blue saloon a few pages back

If I do go for arches they'll be an integral to the body similar to these VW Derby ones.

Yeah that's more along the lines of what I was thinking, what about the style of the '71 z28 which is a mix between these and rolled arches?

I think the closest you can get to that in the UK is the 60s splitter from ABS. Clicky

I have been looking at that one and it's probably the best I can find right now

Just not sure what would work with my arches and style...

This one might look cool but you'd have to do some work to the ends. Clicky

Imps are/were very good cars, especially the 1000 cc Rally Imps.

My Dad used to rally a 998 Imp with Robert Young!

They were very competitive. My old friend the late Colin Malkin won the Motoring News Championship in one in 1968 and Rosemary Smith won the Tulip International Rally outright in 1965 in a 1000 Imp. I did just one event in one and it was excellent.

Are these the smooth sport pack flares?[/quote]

Look like modified Grp5 Bullet arches.
