The only non Porsche qtr u can get at the moment is 74 and on narrow bodied Ie not carrera arched. The worst bit about fitting one, is cutting the majority of it back off to fit a turbo arch. I couldn't bear it on my new quarter so I took to practice on the OS.

Did the other arch today. Hard work. Needs suspension lowering on this side.

Not far to go now, not far

Cheers. All I've got left to do now is.. Weld up the mirror holes and sort out front rsr arches..

Then paint, then happy days, putting all the clean bits back on.. Fitting nice tidy new parts, no more messy work!

Good stuff - those wheels are pretty cool

I look pretty young but I'm just backdated yeah
