It is the demo car of a company called quad conversions. The bumper and bonnet is supplied by them. Fitted with a wide arch kit. It also looks like the kingdom rear spoiler, DTM cup mirrors, and I think I have read somewhere that it is a GTE.

try www.quadconversions.com

all i can say is its a mates nova and don't look much like that anymore, the wide arch kits was a bitch to fit as it didn't fit right when he put it on but looks tidy now its done


But it is the normal fiberglass wide arch kit

Some kits'll fit others wont. The first were made for Rallycross cars, converted to RWD or 4WD so the wheel base has increased,, ie front to rear wheel distance is further. There are ones adapted to fit a standard fwd car but you'll need massive wide wheels and tyres to carry it off. Look at it like this, whatever you spend on the bodywork, including buying the kit, you'll need to double to get the proper wheels. 15 TSW Stealths just wont look right! :wink:

Thats not quite true as you can run adverse offset alloys (such as ET0) and they will fill the arches very well and this is a cheap way.

Most people widen the track by using a Astra GTE rear beam and widened front running gear and they you need to run ET49 alloys still, fitting a wide arch kit dosent automatically give the option of fitting huge wheels, you still need to do a fair amount of modding to get them on.
