and can someone tell me if theyre any different for the facelift bumper?

Thanks, Max

[europug]

yeah they are different for the face lift,  there is nothin on the lower bumper for them to clip to .

[NorthernMax]

ah mannnn, i think im gonna have to get 15x7s instead


Thanks man

[europug]

modify them to make it fit

[NorthernMax]

hard to do? ive never tried working with plastic before :S

[CharlieG]

I'v got a set i want to get rid of Northern. Would rather have the styled mudflaps fitted on mine.

[NorthernMax]

Are they unused and unpainted?

If they are how much are you looking for?


Max

[CharlieG]

They are indeed unused and unpainted. Black plastic.

£70 inc postage. How does that sound?

[NorthernMax]

Im unsure about getting them now because theyre not compatible with the facelift bumper and apparently only give another half inch to the width, which all in all doesnt seen worth the hassle! ill let you know if i change my mind and want to buy them, but dont hang on to them if you get another offer


Thanks

Here's some picture of them on REFZ's car:







They don't look half bad Let me know if you change your mind

[NorthernMax]

I know, its just the issue with the facelift putting me offat the moment thats all, that and i dont have a solid quote for my alloys yet so i may not need them! ill keep you up to date

[A.D.I. Ali]

Hi Northern. From what I can make out, you want them to give you more room for the alloys. They'll not do that. They are just put over what you already have to give the illusion of more room because they stick out more than the standard bodywork. When fitted  they'll give the car a slightly more butch look with the standard size alloys, as they already have plenty of clearance, but they go in over the arch return lip and will in actual fact make it more likely to rub on wide wheels. Just because it looks wider, the metal and plastic behind them doesn't disappear. The only way to get the wide wheels you're after to fit is to physically flare the body out.

[Scrogz]

Yeah Northern im thinking you going the wrong way about this too.

Just as Ali said they only stick to the body and dont give anymore room for wider alloys

[NorthernMax]

I know they dont give more room height wise but i was just thinking i need the width so theyre not sicking out too much, im after the 15x7s now anyway so i dont think ill need the arches anymore anyway!, plus ive been told that they dont fit with the facelift ;O


Thanks for the help and advice guys
