Do any of you guys have a wide body or a wide arch kit? I need to get my arches replaced, I'm in Scotland, it snows a lot :lol: , and I have been thinking of going a bit wider so any pics or ideas would be gratefully received,

Cheers,

Dont think they are any readily available except maybe the Kaze kit from japan which would be much dinero. Also bare in mind a widebody kit will look like crap unless you can widen the wheel base a bit to line back up with the fenders. Unless u really want it, I doubt very much it will be worth your money.

Yeah you'll need some hardcore deep dish rims with that. Wheel spacers are illegal here in Oz.

Might not be illegal in Scotland though.

Could someone post a pic of the wheel arches & wide body kit he's talking aboot?

Does someone in your goverment not like cars?

Wheel spacers illegal, are carbon bonnets not frowned upon as well?

Seems plain daft to me :roll:

BTW I decided not to go with the wide body kit. Forget the price of the Kaze one, £400 shipping, I think thats about $1200 in your money.

Plus the garage door would not be wide enough :oops:

Yep as far as the debate here goes carbon fibre hoods are also not legal. :(

Anyway the only wide body kit I have seen for the FTO is the Kaze Aerocraft or the Taevion but the latter I have no idea where to find. If you wanna go that way then it will most likely be custom.
