Update from the Streetoptions website today (18/4/09)

With this being a Four Door vehicle, It does complicate fabrication a touch.
It was then necessary to form and weld two pieces of sheet to follow the shut lines of the rear door and quarter panel.
These will eventually form our returns, visible when the rear doors are open.






The next stage is to begin to form the Inner Arch Returns, These will bridge the void between the original quarter panels and our new flared quarter panels.
They also taper upwards towards our cut back arch, Allowing the Wheel Rim to run close to the quarter panel, while the stretched tyre resides within the arch return, with plenty of clearance.








Before the new quarters can be welded to the car, They will be fully welded from the inside, allowing the outside wheel arch to be grinded down to a small bevel edge that resembles the factory wheel arch returns.
Two small returns need to be fabricated for the areas where the quarter panels meet the Rear Bumper and Sideskirts.

A few more pics. I got sent these this morning (25/04/09) but I'm pretty sure they are from Wednesday when I last saw him. His note in the email said that he had completely finished welding the entire arches and he was going to finish off the arches with some filler before priming them, so expect a complete rear arch picture early next week!




Nice smooth edges











Door shuts taking shape.


Door shuts effectively complete
