Arch extensions

HAs anyone fitted the arch extensions to their Octy ?? If so do they look good or a pile of s**te ??

Colour coded black grill but just deciding whether I should do these as well.

I think dsmithmobile has the arch extensions and possibly James at JBS. Not entirely sure about James though.

James has them and they do look good, however to colour code is a big job due to the rough texture. James quoted me around £300-400 for supply, de-texture, painting and fitting of the arch kit.

Arh Richie the red with the black vRS

Hows the green filter doing?

Would do the arches if I changed to 235 tyres.

The milotec bits are just trim bits hardly arch extensions(wide arch kit). Dont know whether its worth spending £400 for them though.

It is if your tyres extend and you get stopped by the plod.

It was the milotec bits i was going to fit actually....should look OK as it's already black......can't warrant spending cash after the car was just mangled by some F%*kwit in a Rover and smashing me into another guy in an Alfa.....so just having it back in one piece is a bonus.

Where do u get the Swissol by way ?? needs some TLC after the repair !!!
