There may be trouble ahead

Front arch has been completed and the annoying bump that sticks out has been removed and cut back giving a better look and tyre clearance.
Presently on with the rear arch after picking up a repair panel at VBOA

I'm trying to think which bit you mean by 'the bump that sticks out'.

You're a brave man doing rear arches! I must confess that I left that to a professional and even he wasn't too happy about doing it due to the shortage of repair panels.

Its the inner arch area where the square plate is, not really sure what the plate is there for perhaps someone could tell me. if you look at the HB arch from out side the inner protrudes to much imho and looks a bit naff so thats what ive cut back, ill get a pic up.
So finished the wheel arch today and only used half of it, i used the back section cut down to repair the inner section, so i now have a few of cut which will come in i'm sure.

Oh dear, this will be fun any one got a piece of arch

funny how things turn out, i only took it off the road to do the gearbox mounts, still more to do at the rear, shocker top mount as other side, top inner wheel arch, that should complete the rear, then upto the front bugger.
