Has anybody fitted them? How easy are they to fit?

yep, i have them on my van. All they do is screw into the lip of the wheel arch. Best to do it on a hot day so that the arch will bend easier. You need srews, and a hack saw to cut the arches at the back where the lip will come out of the arch. the black rubber you cut to length. Hard part is to get up the caourge to drill holes in your car hoping like hell you don't scratch the paint as it goes thru the lip...... Touch up paint is a good thing. They are in my opinion the best arches on the market.

Cheers

Are these easy to get here, or do they have to be shipped over?

three things to do to stop paint scratches when drilling.

1. put some masking tape over the surface to be drilled, this includes the back where the drill comes through too.

2. Use a centre punch to mark the spot where you are going to drill.

3. use a sharp drill bit and let it cut its way through, don't force it.

I've seen Monte Carlo arches on a mates car (available from Northern Mini Parts he said), they look similar to Wood n Pickett arches (well I got them confused at least). Look good and cost less, I'd imagine, I'd put them on mine but I already have screw on flares.

Anto.
