Hi guys, I need to consult the TM knowledge database.

Basically I need to replace my arches with the exact same, I have tried 2 sets of group 2's and they are nowhere near.

I hope someone out there can tell me what mine are, they do not have the usual lip where they meet the body unlike the usual group 2 arches. Any ideas?

The first picture has some rubber trim between arch and body, just ignore that






Cheers

id put money on it that they are the gp2's that somerford minis sell/sold

imo they are the best on the market, but they rarely have them in stock :(

Most Gp2s you get these days have the fixing hole recesses in the same position as the standard arch so it is a simple swap.

You probably have proper original style GP2s.

I'm sure my gp2's didn't have the lip where it meets the body - got them from Huddersfield Minispares I think

I've sold them to someone else but I'll have a look at thier car and remind myself waht they were like

I thought the wood and pickett ones fixed from underneath so no fixings were visible?
