if anyone has had them done can you tell me how much you paid for an arch?

i went to regal and thay use a place called customise perfection (they re-sprayed the beast) and they said it'll cost me ?70.

how much would u expect i'd pay?

Fergie.

Dont do it, they look s**t. I had my rear arches flared because I had the wrong offset wheels and I hated them. I had to stand the arches being like that for over 2 years. It ruins the Novas lines and does not work at all. This is my personal opinion, you may love it, but thank god I'm getting new original arches welded back in :D

i paid ?20 an arch to have them fully rolled and the flaired out slightly to alow my ET40 17" blue shiney wheels on, he flaired out the whole arch so you cant actualy tell as the whole arch is done evenly, looks very good i must say! give me a wider choice of wheels now aswell. oh and my car is lowered -60mm all round on full kit.

u can see every so slightly it has been flaired, not alot tho...

i wel like the orange cars arches, looks good i think (personal opinion) but think i would have to see it in the flesh first though.

my arches are wel rusty though and i've been told by south coast wheels that the arch could split if over flared!!

i'm gonna go to body shop 2moro and get a better quote, or try to anyway!!

Fergie.

Dare-Devil's Nova looks similar to the "Dahlback-Golf (900bhp)"
good job mate !
