yeeha 0 Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 If I bought a set of wheel arch trims for my '96 VR and ha them colour coded and fitted? Would the jusy fit straight on with no other mods to bumpers etc? Just wondering if its that easy and how good it would look...cheers folks Link to post Share on other sites
adeingolf 0 Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Noooooo! Definately think the vr (and most others for that matter) look so much better with 'clean' sides! Link to post Share on other sites
yeeha 0 Posted June 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Seriously mate? You could be right, i dunno - just sometimes when I see a GTi i think i like the look of those arches.... ach well!!! thanks for the reply matey Link to post Share on other sites
VRmonster 1 Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 i would leave it as it is. unless you find some wide arches, dont bother, lol. think the mk 3 looks sweet with wide arches.[ Edited Tue Jun 08 2004, 05:36PM ] Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 i tell you what, if your car is in good condition i'll swap you for my vr6 which has them fitted lol Link to post Share on other sites
yeeha 0 Posted June 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Thanks for the offer acf, but I wouldn;t want to rip you off mate - mine's done almost 50K now Link to post Share on other sites
nickbee 1 Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 The only difficulty you might have fitting them is that the wheel arches might not have the holes for the rivets which hold the arches in place. The might because the late GTIs had them.It'll look cool. I like the kit, would never contemplate taking it off mine. I think blackburnvr6 has a colour-coded kit on his car.

yeeha 0 Posted June 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Cheers nick Il have a wee lock for the rivet holes tonight...... i think the arches might be murder to get a good finish on though, they're textured are they not? Link to post Share on other sites
