What wheel arches are these?

Post by dan00001 » Tue Jul 26, 2016 9:04 pm

Hi guys,

Does anyone know what these arches are?

Or similar arches that will fit? I have defender arches but not sure I like them.

Thanks.

Look like standard samurai arches to me?

As Twiss says look like standard Samurai arches.

Thanks guys, I was expecting them to be aftermarket!

I will have to keep an eye out for a set. Will they fit my 413 okay?

Should do if the standard arch lips are still on there...

Thanks twiss, I think they are yes.

I'm guessing these are probably going to be very hard and expensive to get hold of?

Hmmm not really the plastic versions are usually easy enough to get hold of

They won't fit straight on, 410/413 arch mounts are different.

There used to be fibreglass versions for sale on eBay, my dad has them. The fibreglass ones are a pain in the ass to mount though.

I could sell you a plastic set, they'll probably need painting though.

Thanks Scottie, how much do you want for them?

I have found a set on eBay, I'm just waiting for a photo to see if they are the right ones.

I don't mind a little work to get them to fit and will be spraying them anyway.

Right so my samurai Arches came today, are there any how-to's on fitting them to an sj413?

Thanks.
