They look like the rivet on Rallye Style Arches that I had on my car for a while. They're black fibre glass, a little larger than regular 'bonded' Rallye arches and appear on eBay from time-to-time for around £100.

i'd say they have been extended further, maybe the rules state that the wheels have to be within the wheelarches...

I think the lip is actually a seperate piece of mudflap material stuck on to make it wider...seen that done quite a few times

No i think Chris means mudflap material (kaylan or similar) is attached to arch to protrude outwards, covering the wheels as they stick out further than the arch itself, which is often not allowed.

Nope it's not, it's some POS that Rub1Off supposedly built with some wild power claim from an 8v.

perfectly feasible to be running that kind of power from an Mi16, didn't sound particularly well setup though, wouldn't idle for toffee :)

Baz, please stop with comments like these, as they're misinformation, if nothing else.

Ahh, i do apologise, must be another one i was getting confused with then, as there was certainly an 8v black one with a wild power claim for sale a while back, and more than that!
