Removing wide arches
If I was to remove the Terrafirma wide arches from a vehicle I'm looking at buying will it make a mess and leave holes in the bodywork if I fitted std arches? I've not collected it yet so can't get a decent look at it but the only thing that's putting me off is the wide arches etc - like this -

depending how they were mounted / screwed in.

mine were fasten by self tappers and I had to plug the holes with rivet to stop water ingresstion and the paint had chaffed around the outside "Rafiki" 2007 110 STW - Rolling rebuild.

Thanks, I've left it, it had too many mods and not enough history or track record, still looking!.....
