Fitting Flared Arches From 400r To Gtst

[Dean_HR31]

Hey guys,

Ive bought a set of Carbon Arches (R33 400R Style) to fit on my GTST.

Just wondering what the correct procedure is of fitting these. Ive been given mixed opinions on the following 2 ways:

-Cut out my original guards and fit the carbon arches

-Or flare out the guards and then fit the carbon arches because that way if the tire does ever rub, its going to rub on the panel rather than the carbon arch that would just instantly break off...

What do you think?

Let me know.

Thanks!

I would flare the shit out of the stock gaurds, then fit it. Cause if you go cutting the rear 1/4 panel there isnt much going back. If you do, try make it neat, and keep the metal you cut out, so if ever need be can weld it back in

I`ve seen people fit the fiberglass ones by cutting the outer wing and seperating it from the inner wing. Then bend forward the inner wing or weld in a mounting strip onto the inner wing to mount the arches to.
