This is a photo of a wing that had the 'wide' arches (they are not wide, they just look so) removed. The VHB 3M tape has been 'broken' and once residue removed the wing should buff up to original paint.

Has anyone fitted the Urban Widetrack arches?

Also, with the ‘standard’ wide arches, are people using wheel spacers or just keeping the original wheel set-up?

Cheers

Well, as the arches aren't actually any wider l can't see the need for wheel spacers.

l was looking at fitting some to my 90 Commercial, the plastics on this model aren't painted so l could probably fit the extended wheel arches as they come from Land Rover (no painting needed)

Are they fairly easy to fit?
