....for a mk1 5 door nova that doesn't restrict the opening of the rear doors?

I can only find 3door kits that have that bloody line on them for a mk2.

anyone know?

thats what i was thinking......

would be rather hard to make the arches wide imo.....

does the arch on a 5 door actuly run onto the door aswell???

just an idea......can any one remember the nova on ebay a few weeks back?? the 5 door with the box style arches like a 3 door???

could u do that then put a normal wide arch kit on????

i no it would take a hell of lot of work but would look better then having a wide arch kit on a 5 door IMO!

Yes the rear arch does run onto the door.

I did see that Nova on eBay it was a diesel yeah?

I thought it looked alright but I don't think it would suit my car.

I think i'm gonna have to make my own somehow.

That was a joke by the way. I'll just av to make some skirts and arches myself......eventually.

I'll post some pics up soon but I'm working on the camber and a bearing and a CV boot at the mo.
