New arches fitted

Busy afternoon fitting new colour coded arches, and a ticket holder, no time to fit the series mudflaps today.
After a good wash they will look better.
Easier to fit than I imagined, thanks to the write up by Dave vx from 2010 that I found on this forum

I was thinking of getting the wheels powder coated
Maybe a gun metal grey
But when funds allow it

Bought mine from Duckworths last week, dropped them at the a paint shop this morning for a quote to paint them in Buck Blue. Will hear on Monday.

Are they easy to fit? Can it be done with the wheels in situ?

Cheers

Front Fogs + Halos
FBH Remote Control
The 1st Ever RRS Modded Grill
Garmin Nuvi + D4 Surround + Reversing Camera.
D4 Steering Wheel.
Rear Boot Spoiler.

Looks really good. Still haven't fitted mine yet but looking at yours mine will be done in the next few weeks. Thumbs Up

Did you have to remove the rear bumper?

Yes Andy just raise it to rock crawl height.
If you need some spare clips give me a shout as I have enough.

On your rear doors it might be worth cleaning inside the rubber and spraying the screws ( torx 15 ) with wd40 in advance.

Fronts are the worst but still not to difficult
All in about 2 hours

Have fun.
