Prolblems, Problems, Porblems... :'(

How do I fit the Euro Group 5 arches to my car? They are the type that havent got the drill holes.
I am also cutting my rear arches out.

Any info will be great :withstupid:

I did the same, riveted mine on from underneath, with the proper rubber arch seal between the body and the arch, worked really well so id do it that way, only if u want to drill through the body though :D

i used small nuts and bolts from b+q. this meant i could remove them if i wanted to work on the brakes/suspension without risking any damage to the arch.

I used nuts and bolts on my clubman, however there is a product called stickaflex (or somthing like that) that will bond them on if you do not want to drill them.

It comes in a tube like mastick. The stuff will stick anything!

Personally I'd drill and bolt though.
