Ok well I have myself a Henly blue mini city with a 1275 lump in it just finishing up the restoration, Its got a black roof and I was wanting to get some black arches for it, but not the rediculously wide arches, Its got 5x12 minilites I think, they were on the car when I bought it and It is pretty standard. while I was at a show I saw a OEW mk1 cooper S with these narrow black arches on it, with a chrome strip along the edge of the arches.
It looked similar to the 2nd mini down HERE
Does anyone know where I can get myself a set of these arches before the mini goes on the road?

Group 2 arches, the narrow option should be 1,45" and you can find them at minispares or huddersfield.
Minispares areches are cheap but require a bit of trimming to be fitted and come in gel coat so you need to paint them.
The crhome trim is sold separately.

Unfortunately most group 2's you find are the ' fake' ones and not the same as the 60's mini's group 2 arches. Not sure where you can get 'real' ones but huddersfield are meant to be best quality for the more common ones. For the trim Pheonix supplies are the people you need.
