shall i rivet the arches on my 3dr, they wont actually be riveted on purely cosmetic, but to give it a bit more of a harder look?

Yey or Ney?









or without?

mattbibs

GARETH T

Ryan

just incase anyone doesnt know im my car will look very similar to that car in the photo's i.e same wheels etc etc, same colour, etc etc.

Just incase you think, yeah it looks good, but only on that car

Do it, then we can make jokes about it being a Proton Satira GTI wannabee

Seriously tho, fuck it, may as well

Ryan

well seing as the kit has got to be dematically trimmed to accomodate the 9 inch rim's i thought well the kits pretty useless to anyone else to i thought maybe rivet it aswell.

I got 3 spare kits if one doesnt go right

Ryan

yeah i tihnk im swaying to without now, purely coz im not sure if im going to sticker it yet, so might look like a proton.

and i'm sure i'll get shouted at by people on the street, look at that fibreglass kit, he's rivted it on, those wheels look funny, what that big bit in the middle

i think it looks sweet with the rivets. do it.

BlueSmoke

But if you do it and then decide you want to take it off one day, won't you have to put filler in your lovely mint 3dr shell???

Ryan

no the rivets will be purely cosmetic, i.e just through the kit, wont go anywhere near my shell mate.



wish me luck im trimming the kit as we speak

CraigN

looks hard as fook with rivets

i like it

BlueSmoke

Ah...... In that case, good luck matey!

if your cars for track and race, the DO IT



IMO LOOKS THE BOLLOCKS as does these in blue wheels

Ryan

rear arch number 1 has just been "trimmed"

fook me, there's more arch on the floor than there is left on the kit

Ryan

they'll be another bits of kit left over from the trimming to make a nice kit up

should put it on ebay, "ryan goes NON bufty for a day", buy a peice of history

steve rs

looks cool do it

Matt

you'll find that after trimming off all you need to get the fat rims/rubber underneath (unless you have ultra solid suspension with no movement) theres nothing left of the underside rivets anyway lol, ive re re-riveted mine from underneath nearer the outside once id finished butchering them

looks crap riveted to the side panels imo plus it isnt a touring car so stop pretending it is

Hofajoab

i think nae! not only does it look naff but it's also fake, like adding washer jets or summit, you'll see stick on rivets on next months max muppet

Skedge

Do it mate coz you will only go and strip it 2 months later once you are bored!
