eBay metal arch spats
Anyone fitted the metal spats on eBay? Opinions/experience? The ones I've seen seem to be painted metal. Cheers

Re: eBay metal arch spats
Never fitted them, but some wheel arches are hit by the sliding door, so they need to be slim.

Re: eBay metal arch spats
Yup, they actually look pretty good. Ignore the fitting instructions, they make no sense, just loop a single piece of fitting 'strip' back on itself.

Re: eBay metal arch spats
i saw a bongo today at georges place with them fitted, didnt look too bad really, they are a good fit but do tend to look like a 1985 big beamer in brixton. they fit tight so will not foul the sliding door.

Re: eBay metal arch spats
Thanks. I'm thinking of the black versions. Feedback on these looks pretty good so I think I will take the plunge... If I do, I'll post photos.
Re: eBay metal arch spats
I think everybody has sniffed at these at one point lol
even me
you could always do 30 odd quid and just go for a front or rear pair
if not to your taste - stick them on here at a bargain price and only loose half
im more interested in the rear arches - as ive had mine cut out and renewed etc
and the guy wouldn't tell me what they were - I might end up with half trim not actually sitting correctly
someone hurry up and buy them lol
have I just sold them to myself ? lol

Re: eBay metal arch spats
Will take pics. They are slim, not the ' bulbous' type, and look good, I think.helen&tony wrote:Hi Derek

Hi
Ta, Derek...
Just curious, as I seem to have a LOT of chrome, so I have black arches
Cheers
