    Default New Wide Arch Kit

    New wide arch kit coming out. I wonder how much interest there is.
    I know people would need to see it first but the idea is to do a small survey to see how many are interested in a wide arch kit before seeing pictures and how many would be after seeing the kit.

    Any one who's game for this?

    I'm thinking of getting a wide arch kit for my hatch, but tbh I think i'd like to see a couple of pics of it first to get a rough idea of the quality and the style (i.e. the arch size - larger arch bulges or just flared out further)

    quality is down to how well you fit it. no wide arch kit will bolt on and look good.
    click below to see mine. Pro-Tec motorsport kit and by no means tidy out of the mould.

    The car is not quite finished. It's just been sprayed and is being rebuilt
    I'll try and sort some pictures for later today only one problem I don't know how to put them up on the forum so if there are any volunteers who will host them let me know

    i'd like to see a wide arch kit that isn't as wide as the ones out allready.

    one that keeps the novas boxy lines but makes them say an inch wider

    agreed, something a little more subtle than the current wide arch kits.

    Yep me too. I would like a kit thats around 10mm-20mm wider, rather than 100mm that most of the kits seem to be.
    If one was produced i'd defo be interested :!:

    Dave GSI Nova Neil and Slim Jim Sorry to disappoint
    This kit is definately wide arch and the idea was to get rid of the boxy shape. I understand that there are going to be people who will either love it or hate it at the end of the day everyone has different tastes, if not we may aswell stop modifying.
    How many of you liked the Project Salm Astra for example I'm sure that there where those who did and those who did not
