Rear Arches

fillpoke · 10-28-2009, 04:40 PM

Hi All. Sorry if this question has been asked before. I've looked all over but can't find an answer hence this question. I need to replace my rear arches and for various reasons I need to do it as cheaply as possible. So I want to use pattern panels (such as those from Hadrian Panels). Since I can't get any specifically made for the MR2 mark 1 I'm asking which are the best fit? I know Datsun cherry are pretty close but is there anything better? I know various clubs can provide panels but they cost more than I can afford at the moment.

You might see if the twosrus.com arches will be the best option for your replacement

I have the same issue. Let me know how you do it.

These are the panels I'm not using because of their cost.

Go with custom? Get some steel, a welder, and a hammer and go to town? Thats what I did and I think I did a pretty decent job. I'm no body guy and I didnt want perfect so it is what it is.

Which one do you need? I have a good driver side I can cut out. Just pay for shipping and send me a pic of where would you like me to cut them out.

Thanks very much ghost. Wish I'd looked at this earlier. Have just bought a pair of pattern Datsun Cherry arches as I'm told these are pretty close.
