COREdevelopments - 15/4/07 at 07:07 PM

hi i have gts rear arches 11" ones. and am wondering which way to fit them, i thought that the sharp taper bit goes on the front, but seen a picture of gts car and looks the wrong way round, to me anyhows. can someone confirm which way round they go??

thanks

wll that look better, thats the way i want to fit them, think darren done a mistake!
thats a stunning car btw, is it luego chassis, as the arch doesnt follow the chassis arch just like mine. looks really smooth btw.

thanks

They should go with the sharper bit to the front as the arches arnt perfect hemispheres which gives a better angle for putting the rear lights on.

That said ive just mounted mine and i think they give the rear end a better look with the sharper bits at the rear.

Also incase you havent seen them(or like me did but didnt register till after i fitted them!) the arches have square markers on the mating face these match up with the round marks on the rear panel if its a GTS one.

ye did notice the markers as i got a whole body set from darren. but think the arches should be facing forward, unlike his, and on the silver car i saw on his website he even put the stone guards upside down as the have a sharp taper which is meant to sit at the bottom, if anyone has seen it?
