Im going to need a wide arch kit, as the 4x4 track width im using, forces me into it, I wanted one without the side skirts like these,

Anyone know which these kits are ?

Thats just the normal wide arch kit isnt it mate .
Ps you can buy the fiberglass over fenders for much cheaper than the kit .
Around 40 quid per panel i think

I'm sure a man of your creativity could cut and fillet the steel panels to bring them out just the right amount.

I recently re-panelled a hatch with saloon quarters and wings which gives a little more room. Depends how much you need.

Where do you buy those over fenders ?
When you say normal wide arch kit, do you mean the one on ebay ?

This is the mattig kit which is a bit much for what i want lol

Some look boxy, huge and horrid !

This is the one i think looks ok, different angles make the kits look bigger or smaller ?

I thought of doing that but was worried it would look s h i t . Id read threads of people using frontera wings for the flared bit ?

I suppose its going to be full of filler so i might flare them myself,

I must hurry up and get the shell on so i know exactly where im at, with the width :) (today hopefully)

I thought of getting some wheels made but the struts govern how far they can dish inwards.

I cant have it all easy:cry:

A regular Nova body doesn't easily lend itself to wide track.

Another option would be to cut the quarter twice and pull it out, fillet the gap so it was more like the Opel Corsa Sprint A kit.

I ll sort something, once the shell is on ill know exactly, and can take it from there :)
