They won't 'cover' , but with the lip they would atleast meet the edge of the tread... Would look great IMO

Edit: I think I prefer what's on.

they cant got back on as they are cracked and hanging off especially the front one because the front offside wheels hits the arch when turning because when it was rebuilt the arch is kind of in the wrong place

Fair enough.

What about something subtle like wood and picket (these arent genuine ones) :


p.s I love your mini

It's gotta be miglias cut down as they are just the sex on clubbys and would give it awesome stance!

thank you very much :)
i do love the wood and picket arches, i think its really just a case of hiding the top of the wheels or letting them show hmm

i agree but i dont know whether there worth it hassle wise money wise because they only come out by 2.5 inches which i dont think thats enough is it? or shall i just make them fit over the wheels so no tread is visable?

You could, maybe, just get away with Standard Arches.

Cut 'em up and remake then with a fibreglass repair kit. Which has the added bonus, that you can make them fit properly.

well i do fancy a different style of arches anyway
and also ive been messaging tony from abs and he has advised

new picture what do you think

[Minuki]

Really nice. Just need some skinny arches imo!

new picture what do you think

have you welded up your entire suspension??? 8) haha looks cool mate, to be honest i think the cut down miglia arches would look a bit odd, group 5's would be so good!
