Chris from the body shop offered a solution:
Take the spare arches from the opposite sides and graft them in,effectively putting them on backwards
They have had to be hand shaped to fit the rear bottoms but with a little more blending in I think they will look sweet
Almost got a series 1 RST vibe to them-I'll keep ya posted



Series 1 RST ish???





Needs a little fibre blending





Nice joint





N.S. Rear in build





Good ol gaffer tape!!!!
Good idea that!! Looks really good!
