jazz1 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 when i had mine on i had the veilside skirts and spats but i guess they can be adjusted to different skirts but IMO it may look funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr keef Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 So some people have these with no spats? any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 OK, here is a pic of my old Orange car showing the shape of the over fenders and the veilside skirts As you can see, they marry well together and whilst it may be possible to mould them to the OEM skirts, the work involved would probably be more expensive than buying new skirts, arches and spats put together.

Kopite Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Wouldn't suit OEM spats IMO, i've thought about it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True GNV are top gurus, Perhaps they tried and it looks crap, but surly theres no reason you cant fit the fenders over the oem skirts and fibreglass the gaps... ?

True mate, Would definatly take some modifying without question.. Maybe someone could photoshop the arches onto a car with oem spats etc to get an idea?

jazz1 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 my advice mate when you have the arches make sure you have the holes filled otherwise they just make an expensive piece look cheapy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 As you can see, they marry well together That's a matter of opinion. Looks like loads of stuck-on tat to me. No offence like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 That's a matter of opinion. Looks like loads of stuck-on tat to me. No offence like What I meant was that they fit together properly as they were manufactured to do so. Now whether they look right is another thing.
