Wide Arch Kit + Including Bumpers If Possible

[GTiR-Aholic]

I'm about to begin a full respray on my car next week, in mean time engine will be coming out as well as gearbox and everything else..

For the styling I'm after a wide arch kit and I hear that Turini is a popular one with the R's..

Can anyone shed some light as to where to get one or if anyone is selling one let me know

Yeah I see that thread already, visited a few of the links but nothing solid.. a nice kit is one seen here:

I was really hoping someone would have one they'd be selling or new of someone who could mould one in uk.

dont do it do u not think there pretty enough as they are, just like imprezas and evos dont need touchin just my opinion though wide arches would be cool though liker 22B style

 

[GTiR-Aholic]

No when I gave that example, I'm just pointing out the wide arches.. I don't want to do a full kit and then look like the average joey drivin a tarted up clio/corsa... i love the look/style of the R.. i just want wide arches .. reason I say bumper is because I'm sure it'd look a little silly on standard bumpers (wouldn't it?)

 

[Godzilla]

could you not get a bodyshop to cut ur standard one in half and stretch it a couple inches to line up with front wide arches, bit of fettling will look awsome

thought u would like it with ur nodding dogs lol

 

[GTiR-Aholic]

you know something.. I DO like the way he's displayed the intercooler pipes at the front sides of the bumper... lol seriously, I think that is something I might incorporate into my design ideas.

And yeah I was thinking about cutting original bumper and extending, but speaking to my uncle who owns the bodyshop.. he would much prefer the bumper as part of a wide arch kit to match as it means less fabricating.. I don't want to change too much I just want wide arches and bumpers to blend in nicely.

 

[GTiR-Aholic]

I do really like this one though!

Its like chav central! :doh:

 

[GTiR-Aholic]

nah come on that 1 is so nice.. those arches are Wide!.. the n/plate in the bumper rather than in tailgate.. the exhaust holes cut circular rather than semi.. the skirts blended to the back arches.. fog lights in the bumper and the grill and fmic area moulded to hide the edges of the fmic. and that roof scoop looks nice but would serve no purpose apart from extra weight lol

Is this the guy who was advertising on trade me? He wanted money up front and he did not even have the moulds completed so no pics to see if it was like the Jap car. Said he ran out of money. IIRC was only the arches and skirts being made no bumpers.
