Cycle wing outer edge
I'm been looking at my front arches against the IVA regs.
I think I'm right on the borderline between pass and fail.
If I try and bend the wing mounts out futher I'm concerned that I may damage the wings.
Anyone know if say mini plastic wheel arches can be modified to extend the cycle wings out a few mm just to be sure?
The other alternative is possibly to get the wheels milled to reduce the offset a bit, but I guess that could get expensive.

remove the wheel then pull on the mounts this way you dont need to touch the wing
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

If you only need a few mm then find some nice thick trim to go around the edges. Sounds like this would be all you need to be honest

I used clear fish tank plastic tubing sliced down the middle so makes a C , and glued onto the wheelarch,
after some primer and top coat i think it looks very good, and gives a neat finish
