Rear Wheel Arches

Post by CovKid »

ChickenKoop and I were discussing real wheel arches. It would seem that these panels virtually follow the line of the arches behind if one follows the seams. I've seen larger wheel arch panels but I gather there are smaller ones that presumably could be fitted along the factory seams?

Mine aren't rotted out but are way too battered to contemplate anything other than new arches. Has anyone done this and/or could point me in the direction of an illustration of wheel arch panels as I've described?

Does no one have an answer on this one? Surely one doesn't have to replace a whole panel just because the arch itself is damaged. The rest of the rear section is fine. The arch seems to run along a seam and it is only this that is damaged. Can this be bought as a panel in its own right?
