yeah I'm getting a bit bored of the stainless covers, it is a bit too much shiny I think.
If I get some GP2's then I can spray them blue and if I don't like it I can always spray them back to black

Got the arches changed. I really like them. Huddersfield Group 2s in body colour with the huddersfield chrome strip. Here you go... opinions welcome :) ...

Very nice! 
Now get some 10" wheels + lower the car and it will be perfect.

Thanks I like it. I would go onto 10s but the brake conversion is very expensive

Is there any additional drilling to the body required or are they a direct fit over the standard arches?

You need to drill the holes and cut the slots for seams in the arches but they are the same holes and slots as standard arches. You just need to measure everything out and take your time then they will fit well.
Thanks for the replies guys I have got a picture of the unpainted GP2 on the front if you want to see it for a comparison?
