1992 k10 micra........arches, opinions plz

[pork]

Cheers, defo need tucking under the arches a bit better, there are some cool k10s on ere and on msc, like rtlkyubbi's, swiftmini's, etoorebugati's, bias.......loads really

Tidyied up the boot, removed broken wiper motor and washer jet, and the boobs, Still needs rubbing down and painting but looks much better without the boobs (number plate light) got some light bolts before anyone asks.

Got these today, thanks rangerbob!!

Opinions please and suggestions on fitment

[Mephiston]

i approve! looking good, but i would paint the gap between the front bumper and arch black (or blend it in with some fg if you can) and i cant tell if the problem exists at the back - i think that would just give it a slightly cleaner look

[pork]

Cheers dude, know what u mean.

Not in final position yet, still playing about with taping them in various places to get the best look,
what I do need help with is what to do with the metal arch as I want to go lower but the tyre hits the metal arch
Suggestions anyone?

[tumult]

they look good from what i can see (any chance of some bigger pics lol) i was originally going to fit some of those arches to mine but changed my mind when i found out how tidy the body was, its got me thinking again though

[nofrills]

That looks class mate top work

Cheers dude, can't do bigger pics, all done on iPhone
Does look badass, pics don't do it justice

[pork]

NO more tapped on arches, all bolted on know........but still unclear as to what to do with the metal arches as to get the ride height I want, the wheels hit the arch and stop the car which is no good ( no curse word sherlock!!)

[Speedle]

WIN! I wish i had though of this when I had K10's those arches look mean!

[pork]

Il get some better pics up later when my camera works
Cheers tho !

I need it lower, but like I said, it won't move coz metal arch sits on the tyres!!

[ettorebugatti]

Cut the metal arch away, you only need a small lip to rivet the arches on.

[pork]

They are already bolted on mate

It's just what to do with the rear metal arch really ?
The amount of arch I want to cut out will take out part of the inner arch which is no good as I can't weld

[mini-mad-nick]

oooooooo WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY this makes me want a k10 micra sooooo much so the 6n coilovers are simply drill the holes out and they fit? if so, looks like I'm going to be getting one soon then

Also, what PCD are them superlights? i have a set of mini pcd superlights, will they fit?

[pork]

Yeah polo coilles are easy for front, tricky for the back

These wheels were from a mini do all good

[pork]

Meant to day 'so all good'

[mini-mad-nick]

So the only mod to the rear is the mod u have done with the bush sleeve?

also, where did you get your arches from?

*runs off to ebay and local freeads to search for micra's*

[pork]

Yeah, thats it really, can go stupidly lower but it would never move, but looks badass

Arches from rangerbob off this site, they are the style 1 types

[mini-mad-nick]

Hmmmmm how low is yours? I'm defiantelly going to look out for one now, drop it, 13" superlights sprayed black, black trim, arches like yours and some proper wing mounted mirrors, recon that would look good tbh

[pork]

Well.... Everything that can have a scrape on it has one lol

Yes mate do it!
