Rolled arches
Hello everyone, I am having my car resprayed in the April when I get some time off work and I was wondering about having the arches rolled before hand incase it damages the paintwork afterwards!
Does anyone know somewhere that does it or be able to come to the house or work to do it? How long does it take? And how much would it cost?
Thanks Claire

why would you want them rolled ??? as long as you got the right off set wheels and right tyres they wont need rolling or you could just get stiffer suspension

Had my arches turned instead of rolled as the rear panel is 1 piece and there is a risk of it creasing if not done properly. Mine cost around £50 to do.

Are they easy enough to clean? as I need my rear arches done to allow the use of wider tyres. But concerned of not being able to clean them thourghly so rust etc doesn't set in.

if done properly i.e arch enemy, they will roll the inside lip up and seal it with a sealant so moister/dirt etc doesn't get in there.
i would as above also recommend arch enemy, done a great job on a previous car when i ran wide wheels

sounds like a properly done job.
