How to fit group 5 arches to a clubman?
Turbo Mini Forums

Happy crimbo guys and gals
rite the parents have brought me a set of group 5 arches from midland wheel supplies for my clubby. Only problem is there isnt any instructions or pictures on how they shud look/fit/sit?
I have 12 inch wheels and was wondering if the 5's will suit my car???
(there is a pic of it in the my car room)
Also there arnt any little slits for the seams to slot into, is this normal and i have to cut it my self or are these arches jus cheap and nasty???
Any pics of cars with them on (especially clubbys) wud b gr8
cheers
arron

hello

in the show us yours section there is a picture of my car with grp 5 arches fitted on the rear, havnt got round to fitting the front yet as im waiting to finish the engine to put the front end back on. they are fairly easy to fit, just drill a few holes and use some stainless self tapping screws (thats what i have used) on the seal that goes between the arch and the body work, i just cut part of the seal away where ever there is the fixing point on the arch..
