Ha, you it’s funny, I actually agree with you now. I am building up a very similar rig to yours, 90, Pangea green, but with black elements where yours are white, (although I opted for the alloy 18” wheels [5094] which I am having powder coated black).

Anyway, I liked the look of the wheel arch kit in pictures, so I ordered one. Went to pick it up yesterday not too long after posting here… And in person, holding the arches up against my truck… I’m not as big a fan. Makes the truck look a little plasticky. The stock rims are better looking. So I passed on the kit.

Regarding the spacers on your truck… Who did you end up going with, and what thickness? I have a 1” lift from Lucky8 inbound, and will be running spacers (adaptors, really) as well, but still deciding on the right ones.

Your build is looking great! What’s next?

Ding ding ding, we have a winner.
Congratulations sir, you have built a proper D90 that truly honors the original.
Very nice, enjoy.
