hi guys, looking for suggestions as i am undecided on what arches i want on my mk1 (rep) rally car. it will have external hinges and mk1 rear lights, mustache and mk1 boot lid, so i'm trying to make it look authentic(ish). wheels i will be using reverse rims on the road and 10x6 wellers on the stages.

 

any suggestions, prefferably with pics would be good.

 

i've had a look throught the arch directory and i can't decide. here is the colour

If the car is de-bumpered then i think colour coded Wood and Picket arches would look smart :thumbsup:
