Thanks guys. Just to be sure, I am going to trim the wheel arches just in case. Surely it cant do any harm if I do it and it ends up not being required.

Sorry. Yes I mean wings.
Will measure the overhang when the wheels are fitted and decide what arches are needed. Im hoping to use group 2.

If it happens that Sportpack arches will do what you require, there are cutting templates and new edge stiffeners available to do it properly. Last time I looked, Somerford had them.

Thanks. Have seen the stiffeners but havent seen the template. Apparently mini spares used to do them but they dont seem to be on the site anymore
