cheers Andy

The thought of You, Mark & myself going out for a drive in our 3 Tango Roadsters will soon be a reality, that will be a great sight to see, tho.....I still have the idea of attaching a tow rope to the back of your car so I will be able to keep up with you

cheers

Excelent Andy,

I too was using split corrugated conduit to tidy up engine wiring yesterday, but that was on the MK1 Golf. It's more or less ready for MOT for the first time in 3 years and makign the garage available to finish My Sapphire off....

Its been a while since I,ve updated this thread, so thought I,d do so by asking for your opinion on the following please........

I,ve been busy fitting my bodywork recently, & I can,t decide...........

Originally I had Tango Orange arches but fancied a change So with a great big thankyou to Spud at Saturn I now have lovely polished black arches .....Thanks spud

I need your help please guys......which photo/fitment looks the best?

The first photo is of how I believe they are meant to be fitted ( tips of the wings at the bottom edge of the side panel & the rear tub), this creates quite a gap between the tyre & the arch......or is it just me being picky?

The second photo shows the wing approx 1 inch lower than the rear tub...

Which way should I fit my arches?

cheers

First one's best - I prefer the look of it with black arches, it just works for me with the black interior. That is looking well sexy. You seem to have a lot more ground clearance than me - is it just the angle of the photo or is yours higher at the back than the front?

Didn't you say your rear shocks were too big at the moment, so the ride height is slightly too high?

Fit like the first pic, then when you sort your suspension, the big gap will be gone

[HandyAndy]

cheers guys......

Enoch..... thanks for your kind words.......sexy looking until I get in it
I think David 17 has hit the nail on its head here, I think my rear shocks are too long, they were given to me by a fellow forum member, originally fitted to a "Dax", maybe its this that creates the extra ground clearance.......... I wonder if Spud would notice if I "borrowed" his

David17..... Thanks mate..... I think thats what I needed to hear

cheers
andy
