Hi, i have a sliver 1992 rover mini and i want to put group 2 arches on it but i dont know what colour to go for i was considering going for a nice gloss black with a chrome strip but i have seen minis with the arches painted the same as the car and i think that looks nice too
any suggestions would be much appreciated :thumbsup:

definitely black, not so keen on the chrome strip, that doesn't suit all cars. Put some pics up of how it is now

depends on your brakes mate.
im guessing you will have standard discs up front meaning 10" wheels will not fit unless you:

a. fit cooper s 7.5 brakes
b. use a 1" spacer (not advisable)

hope this helps
