oh i hadnt thought about a single wiper. is there a way to make the standard unit into single wiper? think that would be kinda kool
oh and here is a pic of me fitting the roll cage in the pitch black. needless to say im now very dirty and scratched but it fits at least.

omg a lot of sex wee just came out. great pics thanks!
got arches today at last which is good, the guy next door says he will make some moulds from them and make a load of copies if anyone is interested, wont be anywhere near quality of jasons i doubt but they will be cheapy cheap.
will do a for sale add in the forum i guess would be a good idea.
if its not pissing down with rain tomorrow will masking tape archs on so everyone can see how good they look

i dont have the front splitters but i will get my polish mechanicy mate to make some molds of the arches so we can start producing some copies then. i will make a set and then cost them to you guys. will be the price of the materials plus a couple o beers i reckons.

no suspension mods, the rear steels are being banded out to 11" and my fronts nearly fill archs anyway, will fit them this sat so you can all see what i mean.

right time for a few update pics so far me thinks,
started work today, didnt relise how much time it takes to strip out an e21!!!!
well here is my work so far
just a pic of the interior now its all gone
this is the inside, does anyone know why there is this strengthing bar on just onside? bmw after thought maybe???
archs held in place with one rivet, as you can see got a fair amount of arch to cut away, car is gonna be low!!!!!!!!
inside the arch, as you can see there are two skins, what im gonna have to do is make 3 seperate cuts then bend and weld bits together, will take pics as i go so you can all see how i do it tomorrow.
just a wee little pic from the rear, defo gonna have too get those rear wheels banded out
got my spare 18 " split rim and stuck it to my steel wheel with some bluetack and took a pic. is it just me or does it look fricking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh yeah baby!!!!! going low on 15's i way better though
well here is a pic of a girly holding my front arch, havent started chopping up my new wings yet. front wheels fill archs nicely though which is cool! so what does everyone think so far then?
