Er... Bat Motorsport? The arches come as whole new pannels, so you get a set of wings, rear quaters and then the bumpers. There is a fair ammount of work involved in fitting the kit, especially the rear arches.

The arches are made of fibreglass, think you'd have a job welding them on... You will obviously need new inner arches cos they are so damn big.

as people say BAT
as for fitting the kit 4 words "let BAT fit it"(and i do bodywork)
the kit dosent fit the car at all, every panel is out of shape, and most bodyshops will not even fit the kit (thats how bad its fits) places like colourworx fulwoods (carismas bodyshop)

BAT charge i think about 3k for supply and fit the kit (kit on its own is £1200)

you will also need bigger wheels (ET28 wheels and bigger then 17's) to fill the archs where vauxhall offset is ET49 and would look stupid under the archs

its alot of money as its not just a kit, you will need the right wheels, new fuel filler cap (as standard one dosent work right and looks stupid it u boch it) etc etc

the kit took awsome when done right
anything you need to know about the kit u2u me, and if u are going to buy one let me know as like to keep in contact with everone who has the kit as there isent many even thow its been out around 10 years which is longer then the PSG combat one
