Re: Wheel arch - will rivets hold it!!!

Thanks for the info Karl

To be honest my panel isn't far off your picture I don't think the video shows the panel clamped into place very well. I know there are a few places that need a little trimming but I always try to leave too much on the panel to start with rather than not enough and then trim as required.

As for cardboard templates I alway make them first and size wise the templates are 95% accurate everytime but folding card and aluminium is very different so the results will always differ slightly.

Also I am having my panels powder coated and will make sure that any gaps are properly filled to avoid any water ingress.

I'll post some pics up once the panels are fitted and hopefully they will look ok.
