You need a proper body shop to do it with a rolling machine for it to be right without cracks.
What wheels and tyres do you have?

Then you have no option unless you change to stiffer suspension or go back to 17's
My P1 scrubs on 18's with the same tyre but only when bottoming out.
I took the plastic inner arch lip off which helped.
