Ryan,
the bubble arches are different to the zackspeed versions, hence why you only got photos of the Bubble arches.
double click here

thanks to turbosport

Some seriously pukka metal


Me Uncle Dave built a Black, bubble arched, Mk1 Mex' around 1984-5 running a Burton built Lotus twink lump on DCOE 45's. Sat well low on 8" F & 9" R wide minilites, quarter bumpers, six clocks, woodpack & stripped/caged/cobra buckets inside.

Was just a skinny 13 year old at the time, and thought it was the baddest/fastest/coolest car in the world, and still to this day my dream car is a Bubbled Mk1

ryan, for either versions of arches you will need to remove the outer lip and corresponding inner arch section, depending on ultimate wheel size you might want to look at installing a larger wheel tub
for a standard sized wheel up to 15's this will suffice

I would wait to recieve the arches before you start cutting, use the flares to provide a cutting line.

Good luck
