No modding or cutting needed. I've absolutely no idea where to find them!

Anyone?

No idea not too keen on them though. :y:

and you'd need to cut the rear trim too

Looks like a half-arsed job.

Looks better without them (Y).

iirc the sites that sell them have them under 106 arches so that might be why you can't fnd them anywhere

I love 'em!

The Saxo ones which I have are a fair bit bigger and look much nicer than the 106 ones.

They do look a bit shoddy on the back. Meh, ah well :(

There is a gap in the arch for it to sit over the bump strips.

That's why I thought they were saxo ones - the back ones have a groove underneath to go on top of the current trim, and the front ones have a gap for the indicator. That's why I'm a bit stumped?

100% are. Mine have been filled and fibreglassed on front and back ;)

reckon they could look decent smoothed but other than that i wouldnt have them, would go for the vt kit llooks more natural and fitting

front looks ok untill it reaches the sill. really needs some kind of skirt to 'fill' it out a little.

looks a bit crap imo
just looks like a simple add on that could fall off

It wouldn`t look so bad if the vt kit side skirts were fitted as well.
