Where is the best place to buy arches that fit. Looking for group2 sport ones. Also does anyone know another way of attaching the front grill and trim besides self tapping screks. New paint job and dont want to damage it.

Thanks

Agree with Bungle on the arches - I have them on my Clubby & didn't take too much trimming to fit - mostly where the wing is a slightly different shape at the front.

You could use rivnuts which are a threaded insert so you can use small bolts (with grease!) for the grille so the holes don't open up over time. Only problem with them is they need a special tool to put them in with like this: http://www.frost.co....ostSubcat=Tools
or search for rivnut or nutsert on eBay.

Do you have a link.Will I have to drill the body to fit them. Dont really mind because putting them on new bmh shell so it wont have origional arch holes.
