They're Curley Carbon Fibre Arches used on the mini minus.

I asked Curley specifically for a set the same as used on a mini minus I'd seen, they later told me that they were front spats but sold them to me as a set.

Hello,

Love your work, I had ideas along those lines a while ago, but as i didn't plan to build anything never went out and found something to make fit inside the shell.

I am looking to put those arches on my Minus, but have been put off a bit so far because the arches I have curve in to the front and rear valences, so would be a pain to get neat again with the new arches; looks like you've found me a solution, thanks very much!!!

Paul.

Morning all,

Although my build has slowed right down it's giving me the opportunity to look at the minor details that make the car individual. I've recently designed a log for my MiniMojo and had a sample stitched onto felt, the end product will be on my headrests. I've also designed a stainless steel binical with a similar logo, once a sample is lazar cut I will photograph it and post the results.

Would anyone be interested in getting something similar? Thought I might post it on locost to see if there is a market for this type of thing.

What do you all think?

Regards

Patrick

I think they look cool!
Can't wait to weld them on!
