Bit of an update, i flared all four arches, the rears didn't come out aswell as the fronts due to a little rust which is a common thing on the S2k unfortunatly. So all in all the rears are a little wavey. However, the fronts which everyone usually has a problem with came out extremely well.
Poor I phone pictures also including one built up wheel and a picture of some chrome indicator bulbs 
Front arch flared
Standard comparison
Clear indicator bulb on right standard orange on left
One wheel built up (works VS-XX Split rims) 17x9 ET30

I know But i can use my Dad's focus diesel as he barely drives anywhere due to lifts and walking to work. So this will sit in the garage.
It's also kind of different to anything i've owned being RWD and being a much rarer car. There is so so much that can be done to these it's staggering, there massive in the states.

Yeah i'm getting ASM wide archs so it's not bothering to much at the moment
Cheers Dan, i wanted them for ages and was lucky enough to find a perfectly sized set.
