I have put my 10 inch wellers on for the final time today!!
They have been on and off more than a hores knickers lately, lol!
Put the arches on tonight, i am quite pleased with the results.
Had to take the front bumper off for the time being as on one side, the wheel rub against it near full lock and the arch wouldnt fit correct! The other side was perfect.
May be a cheap copy bumper.
I will get some better pictures on here tomorrow, let me know what you think.

I notice that you have removed the front bumper, but not the mounting flange. If you are pulled by the boys in blue, you will be charged with using a vehicle in a dangerous condition.

if you have some sill trim or arch trim, you can temporarily put that on there while the bumper is off to stop a telling off

trim the offending bumper until it fits, and paint the end you trimmed! sorted!

mini looks nice by the way, wide group 2's? or group 6 arches? i got a set of group 6 arches to go on my clubby state, along with 6x10 wellers painted black centre, and silver rim! just waiting on the tyres now from minisport!

Cheers for the advice, I have the bumper and grinder in the car ready to get to work on, maye at lunch time.
The arches are group 2 race from minisport. They fitted quite well, a bit of messig around but that was due to the bumper!

I'm getting some more pictures up tomorrow, some nice angled ones for you guys!
Got the bumper on today, cut it with a hacksaw and it fits perfect!

As for the roofrack, the sunroof doesn't open when there is stuff on it, but when it's empty, the two middle bars just pop off and go in the boot so the sunroof can open which is very handy!
