Just be lots of effort getting them lined up and making sure you drill the right place. The clips they come with are very good.

right they come with clips thats good but will still smooth over and fill dont want em coming off or cracking
i bought the mk3 arch extensions for my mk2. they fit spot on and the clips hold them very very well. only problem i found is that they rub like a b*tch when you drop the suspension down so i took mine off as i could get the car lower without them. annoying really as the whole idea of fitting them was to get the car lower without scrubbing. lol

Hey thanks for the help few questions I have mine lowered about 100mm I have no scrubbing or scrapping. Would it run whe. The wheel was on full lock against the side or just which the shape the where when clipped on also do you still have them or a t pics of them
And honestly how good did it look
will try get some pics up 2mo mate. i think it looked real nice. it joins the bumper edges and sideskirts together perfect. mines dropped 120 at the back with 17's and no scrubbing until i put the arches on. one of the clips was touching the tyre wall and the bottom lip digs in too. tried jacking suspension up 40 mil and still same probs also if like me you've rolled your arches back, they can be a bit of a pig to try get the clips to attach. as for the front. i got about a 70 mil drop and no issues with the arches even on full lock. just looks naff having the fronts on and the backs off. at the mo there just sat in the garage, might look and see if i can cut the bottom of the arch off and find a way to stick them on. after closer reading of the instructions, there designed to go on with standard suspension height and with archliners, etc still on the car. kinda defies the point in wanting wide arches if you ask me though...............

Ahh right as you say pointless to have arches on a car unless its. Low lol and I only have 15s so got no trouble lol but my arches are standard no roling as small wheels but can imagion looks well
might get away with 15's mate. how wide are your wheels? mine are 7" i reckon 6.5's and below would be fine? whereabouts are you? your welcome to come trial fit them on your motor to see what they look like on yours?
