I think it looks brilliant, but each to their own. Why worry what others think?

What do you do with the bit off the front and back bumper where it meets the arch? Surely you cant just fill it all with filler? I can see that it’ll be pretry prone to cracking!?

thats what i was saying, if the arches are physically attached to the body and bumpers really tightly (With filler), when the body of just the bumpers move then it will cause it to crack.

Looks good but I wouldn't risk it because if it cracks it will look shocking and you'll have to pay again!

Yes... Im almost certain thats what my painter did.....Well i dont think he actually did "copies"cos they wouldnt fit properly, but he made the shape in fibreglass, then used filler to make it "arch shape"... Its rock solid now.

ive had my arches blended in, with my bodykit aswell, it cracks everytime u hit a bump in the road, i am having my bumper repaired its 3rd time cos of scraping my bumper on a driveway.

But it does look good though.
