rear wing arches - which is the front?
Ok .. stupid question time - but is there a front & back to the rear arches?
The square edge on the back and the sharp angle to the front is what I plan to do - is that ok with everyone here?
cheers

probably. depends on manufacturer - caterhingham ones have a cut out for the exhaust on passenger side, as indeed one other one.

I could never tell with MK ones, decided that the angle would be best at the back to show off the wide tyres

only looks silly when you don't have huge tyres to show off

The front of an MK arch is slightly flatter to accomodate the arch protector... it's also tapered at the front and flat at the back to allow the
cowelled lights to sit parallel.
The guy with the arches on the wrong way (not his opinion BTW) was a guy called Barry - as he was 6'6" and let's just say
"very able to handle himself" - I wasn't going to tell him. But then he already knew and preferred them that way!!
