MarkyMark Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Liking the shape, have ou thought about maybe filling the indicator hole and getting some new wing mirrors with the indy's built in or relocate it somewhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 love the arches, but you should try and move side repeaters out a bit to smooth out the look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gti-James Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 Liking the shape, have ou thought about maybe filling the indicator hole and getting some new wing mirrors with the indy's built in or relocate it somewhere else? Never thort of getting rid of the indiator and getting wingmirror ones i think i may have a lookinto a pair.i saw a pic of a focus with wide arches and the indicator set in the arch like myne and it never came to mind to move it Nice one for that idea loving the shape and style of them but f**k me do they look wobby and in dire need off a proper block sand lol it dose need a final skim and sand but im going to leave all that till ive finished the back arches and need to give the hole thing a once over before the bodyshop or get them to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gti-James Posted November 9, 2008 Author Share Posted November 9, 2008 (edited) Just a little update. Last week ive done all the metal work on the rear arches and got rid of the petrol cap and relocated it to bebind the drivers seat inside and got rid of the indicators in the front wings,then Put the rear surspention back on and also the front and got it sitting at the right ride height with the right spacing for the wheels. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/16306.jpgi desided im going to modifie rs2000 sideskirts for the van and im going to use the van cossy whale tale for the roof spoiler. also waiting for modular lights so i can make my custom rear lights before i put foam on the arches and finish them.http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/16304.jpg Edited November 9, 2008 by Gti-James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 (edited) Coming along nicely, the back of the front arch (at the door) looks a bit odd. I think it needs to either taper in or fatten the door up too (i know cossies have a step but they look ok,this step is far too big) IT looks like a mk2 saxo VT, very smart but the doors are fattened too on the saxo Edited November 9, 2008 by Craig855S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
massivewangers Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 The above post messed with my head, I think I've gone cross eyed He makes a good point though, think it needs bringing out to meet the front arch comehow. Not feeling the spoiler to be honest, looks weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Edited the post for your heads sake (it was just an edited double post) Aye the spoiler isnt helping the look either,how about an estate spoiler? maybe customise it a tad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
