plastic wheel arch flares A new design.Comments please
Matt_H:
and here is a picture!
Boomer:
Re the ABS arches. Yes ABS is much more forgiving and can be painted without flaming first.
chuggaman:
here are 2 pics of a small section of the first prototype...
where i am shown pushing the arch downwards the stress on the plastic is severe.
the other picture shows a stress mark to the bottom left where i stamped on it with my work boots...
the bit on the right is where i tried to rip it....(eventually succeeded with a vice)
the finished product will be smooth textured
Mart:
have you made a mould for vacuum forming them then?
