no, you have to cut the arches back and tub them

ok, is it a huge deal? what is "tub" them? :p

wasn't there a mk3 at the polo show with berg arches on ? May've been a mk2 but i was too wasted to notice the difference! Looked good whatever it was.

NOTE: was actually a brown mk2. Was still sweet looking anyway.

jeah, I'm thinking about it, either thtat or just weld in a plate in the middle of the arch :)

U will have to do what gofasterpinch said but u would have to do that for any model polo anyway!

The main problem is that the polo mk3 has big bumpers and u would have to mod the front bumper so that it joins with the arches!

I have berg arches for my mk3, they arent on yet but v soon will be!

To mod the bumpers i made a braket extension to space the front bumper out a bit more, but when my bodywork is all sorted the bumpers are being cut and designed around them.

I think by tubbed he means you cut your old arches out and re connect the linings? as the rears need to be re welded as the inner lining is attached to the outer wing.

If not forget what i said, but you will have to do that anyway.haha
