cool guys thanks for the help, i might leave the guards untill i can get the wheels under to see if they will hit.

i like these kind of flares anyway so ill just keep these i think, and ill weld on some extentions on to the arch to fit the flare, but is there a way they clip on at the back as well

I am looking to put the Minisport 'Cooper S flares' onto my '65 deluxe body. Talked to Tony today but currently out of stock. I like the look of this type and want to stay away from the screw on type.

What I would like to see is some dimensions and some photos of the metal strips that have to be added (welded/riveted) to the existing wheel arch lip. Also any photos from underneath looking up at the flare would help to see how they attach. I am planning on using the 5'' x 10" performance wheel with 145 tyres (not the wheels that are in the photo)
I know I could get away without the arches but have already decided to include them when doing the body and paint.

regards
