bishbosh Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 I think you have two basic choices - rigid fibreglass or flexible plastic. I have no experience of the plastic ones but the fibreglass ones look fantastic when you fit them but they are very brittle so if you spend your time bouncing off trees they may not be the best choice.

DEANO3528 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Brunel Performance do them. £170 +vat. They are Disco ones but are fairly universal I think. He also gets them in Carbon fiibre! If you do get in touch, tell Jon that Deano says hello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brookers Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Im currently fitting the flexi arches from Steve Wells at Inovation 4x4 150 quid pluss delivery. Finished the near side last night. They are very easy to fit and are easy to trim while retaining a good finish. Will take some pics when i do the off side next week if they will be of use to anyone.

jules Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 There the same as mine I got them through Bearmach but made by the same people I filled the gaps on the inside of the rear doors with black mastic to stop the mud build up.
