Got some pictures at last, been raining all day so thought id just do it in the garage....
The wheels are quite tight against the lip of the arch but thats going to be bent back and sorted
#20: Re: Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 16v F7R Author: shanukes, Location: Haverfordwest West WalesPosted: Wed May 19, 2010 7:32 am ---- The car had a full underbody (arches/chassis) sealent with waxoyl this morning
#21: Re: Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 16v F7R Author: shanukes, Location: Haverfordwest West WalesPosted: Wed May 19, 2010 7:33 am ---- I decided to get some better pictures of the car with the rear 25mm spacers on....
It is tight against the lip of the arches but this lip will be bent back so there will be plenty of room
#22: Re: Renault Megane Coupe 2.0 16v F7R Author: shanukes, Location: Haverfordwest West WalesPosted: Wed May 19, 2010 7:33 am ---- so went up today to measure the wheels against the arches (seen as they were rubbing up against with the 25mm spacers on). The area that was cut was marked out and removed. He then smoothened off the ends so that there was no sharp edges, then added Kurust and will leave it be for a couple of hours before its prept. He said he is going to add some rubber sealant around the edge of the arch (same thats used on the rear inside arches so that they will never rust). I know the car has been down the bodyshop since October and progress doesn't seem to be much, but he has had loads of work on and his mother in law passed away recently so i couldn't exactly hurry him along. Hopefully should be ready for the FCS, if not then its no problem as im no hurry tbh
Im glad i went up to see the job, as i can now apply the same method on the other black Coupe i have in my garage to remove that superficial rust on the arches now

thanks for the overall comments guys.....the coupe should be sprayed up by next week so will show you the results then, and before you ask the paint is under wraps so don't ask what it is
