Hi guys and girls I've hit abit of a dilemma with my build. I need wheels arches but don't know which ones to go for.
I know I will have to modify them as my wheels protrude out about 5.1/2 inches.

I do like them, Japanese?

 

Unsure where you would get them from though - maybe mod them from another car?

 

Oh, I've also just noticed that there's a tyre on that wheel  O_O

In all honesty you could probably get them off another car and only slightly modify them.

Saying that, found these:

I'm sure someone sells them over here though.

the problem is that the arches are about 300 mm to long to start with.

Also the car going a grey colour with pink bits

Had a little play with some migs but think I would need two sets to make them fit :-|

So my thinking is migs on the front as I want the arches to cover most of the wheel and make the rears like previous mentioned
