I'm starting a GT project and need to source a set of steel GT wheel arches.
I've seen that Dansk and Restoration design have them, but is there difference in size, shape and fitting? I've seen some description that Dansk ones can accept up to 9J in width, but I do not want my car to look to wide. Anyone have experience with both vendors parts? |

Does anyone know the inner wheel well to fender lip dimensions for the RD and AA GT flares front and rear? Don’t take any dimension as gospel. They tend to vary depending on the car and installation. |
