Rear wheel arches fitting help
vtecmike - 22/6/11 at 07:53 PM

Hi,

Im in the middle of fitting my saturn bodywork, to my haynes roadster, im at the rear arch stage.
Ive mocked them up but i cant seem to get them centred to the wheel.
Ive ligned the bottoms of the arches with the sides but i seem to have a big gap in front of the wheel and almost touching at the back.

Can anyone give me some help please?

Ive included some photos, which shows the problems, they are the last photos in my album.
The tape is for aerodynamics


thanks Mike

thanks Mike

Im at that stage with mine and its about the same. Same colour body work as well, I thought I was the only one lol. Check out the Caterham superlights, you could park the titanic in the gap, I was very suprised.

Photo 86 of 90 looks ok to me. Could be a bit more centred but you could also end up chasing your tail...

Put the front of the wing level with the bottom of the side panel, it looks wrong that high up.

thanks for the help
