Hi,

 

Mini is just about to go to paint but will need arches on. I can't stand the sports pack ones which were the ones that came with the car and have the holes drilled for. Are there any other arches that fit these holes? Could I just drill new holes for different arches or would the holes come too far up the fenders to be covered? Thanks

Difficult to say. The sportpack come very high on the fender. I have seen group 5 arches go quite high on the front but in the back the mounting points of the sportpack will be hard top cover.

If your car is going for paint any way, i would suggest welding the holes closed and then you are free.

Be sure also that the previous owner did not cut too much the front fenders, a common atrocity of aftermarket sportpack enthousiasts
