Don't underestimate Fekete's modesty - it's not that easy to do a good job without bulges etc. (fortunately someone bought the arch I practised on, despite all the holes) Whistle

@ Fekete - yours look better every time I see them Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

Great write up and looks very nice indeed, I'm sick of the mud being flipped over the side of the bodywork, plus that little extra looks great, I'm glad I've joined now seeing that . Wink

Thanks for the link, I may have to go slightly wider as I have 2" tyre protruding past the arch.

Brendan supplied me some specials for my 130, lower than cill level but I'm sure he can get cill level ones made for 130. They are solid items very well made.

@ Fekete
Actually looking at your picture you've got the same tyre overlap.
Has yours got the metal rod inside the extensions?

I see you took the arches off to do the fitting, do you recon they can be fitted in situ?

Mr Frog,

Once you have a price from Specialist-leisure stick it up on here as there is a small place here (in Cyprus) that sell those extensions at maybe a better price- postage is reasonably cheap too.

Last time I asked Specialist-Leisure for a price it was over 60% more than the retail in the US!!!

They are really tricky to be honest but could be done with the arch in situ... it's really easy to take the arch off and get a better job as you haven't got much to play with.....I haven't got the rod inside as there quite stiff anyway....
the only reason i fitted them was i had a keen Copper on me case Big Cry but after fitting was quite happy with the result...

Glyn, your probably right on the price thing...as said got mine over in Canada when i was there so was a lot cheaper Thumbs Up NEVER TAKE LIFE SERIOUSLY. NOBODY GETS OUT ALIVE ANYWAY
