    Cheers Cret!

    Unfortunately the other arch didnt turn out so well. The arch doesnt look so neat and also managed to detach the inner arch from the outer arch.

    Bit of hammering and some welding should sort it out.

    I might end up sticking some over fenders on there if a set come up cheap enough. But these flared arches will do for now.

    Well the slight issue with the inner arch has been fixed, thanks Warby!

    This is how the car looks now....

    Looks like I might need +50mm wings but I think a bit of camber will sort the issue for now

    I have had one of the skirts test sprayed in VW Red Mica Pearl LE3P

    Been slowly chipping away at various bits that need doing. The main thing is the new loom arrived. Swapped a few wires and a plug.

    The car is running now!! Had a sticky starter motor at first but have had that off and freed it up.

    More updates and pictures to follow soon!
