Pics (I need!) jdm arches

[pork]

Right!! My Superlites stick out WAY to far to just roll the arches, but, I love them and not giving them up

So, Iv ordered a set of the arches off RR (style 1)
Wot I need is info/pics of wot to do with the metal arches, where to cut/weld

Any info appreciated:grinning:

Take a look over on Driftworks, I'm pretty sure there's a few guides on how to do this over there. Obviously they won't be on Micras but it's more or less the same procedure for most cars.

if i remember rightly it was gtsnissanb (martin) i was going to go down that route but i went off bubble arches cause i prefer box type ones. they dont look bad or anything but just not to my taste. i think its mainly due to the ones ive looked at are a bit big. anyway thats just my opinion :laugh:

i haven't got any pics of arch work ive done in the past off my cars so ill leave that to someone else to explain but there a loads of ways to do the arches. i usually chop mine in sections then move to desired location with a big hammer then re-weld.

yeah thought so lol. (Y)

pork you have the decent looking arches (style 1's) their much more flush looking imo the style 2's are a wee bit on the big side for the k10.

Cool, cheers for info

Has to be done, finally got wheel nuts for them the other day and took for a test drive, as soon as I went down the kerb on my drive, the tyres hit the arches and the car jus stopped!

I could raise the car up on the coillies, but I like low!
