hello,
does anyone know if the 3dr and 5dr have exactly the same wheel arch space? theres a wee bit of plastic that sticks out more on the rear left of my 5dr

Hi Aaron,
I'll check my arches tonight. I'll measure how much space I have combined with some close pictures.
I didn't have time yesterday

If all else fails look underneath the car
I can't really see any difference, but if there is it'll probably be because of the exhaust bracket.
(for the record, 3dr and 5dr wing liners are the same. South African ones are different though i'm not sure how)

My left rear is the same as my left rear as well. My left hand wing mirror is also the same as my left hand one, strange
