I had all four arches done all but one cracked and flaked.
No heat tho.
I didn't really need the front doing either, so next time im going to try grinding the rears back only.

Isn't it a bit daft to lower a car to the extent that it damages it?

very nice bugeye caveman

I think I have solved the problem with your braking that you posted a thread about the other day.

since it is common fact that cavemen use their feet for brakes



I recommend a pair of these as it will give you better all round traction when harsh braking and the tarmac wont scrape the bunions off your feet any more either so
two birds one stone



Hell yea I on it like a car bonnet when it comes to solving peoples problems

Not stalking you

I do love pictures as they give a bit of extra content to what I am saying

also good for helping cavemen understand things a bit better more so when they struggle to read or write

besides I am only funning with you

and it is a very nice bug eye
