Arch Rolling
Anyone know anyone with a roller who would be able to roll my rear arches without cracking the paintwork.
I'm fed up with worrying whether my tyres will or won't rub as they are fag paper close. So thought I would get them rolled then I can stop worrying and start enjoying. |

Cheers James, I may take you up on that.
I think Si has one too but I'm not sure about the heating the paintwork to prevent cracking bit. Hence I would prefer using someone that has done it before. |

While you can try to heat paint to roll arches, there is no guarantee it won't split, I did my golf and split due to the tabs that hold the arch liner on fused a bit of an issue. If the paint has any weaknesses already then it will crack.
Just try it and if does split then it will just need sorting then. Even the pro's get you to sign disclaimer. |
