Hi Guys n Gals,

I'm looking for a competant body shop that can roll/flare the rear arches on my NG BGT, Ive asked at a couple of places (I wont name names)but they seem to be staffed by relatives of cromagnon man who have all told me to go to an MG specialist. Hmmm, ok, if you don't want my money....

If anyone has any recommendations I'd be very gratefull. I Need to get them rolled and possibly very slightly flared in order to stop the new wheel and tyre combo rubbing. (You cant beat the high precision of British Leyland engineering can you!).

Cheers,

Neil

Try Arch Enemy (I think they are called that). Did my Goat and messed it up but that was not his fault TBO. The guy was very carefull and had alot of experiance. (For ref: my arches were to thick to roll really)

Specialised Paint in Reading did mine on a Porsche 924S pretty well. I live in South Bucks, but they seemed the closest with a "safe" reputation that I could find...

Bare in mind that if the car has had rear arches/quarters fitted in the past (very likely on an older car) that you're very probably going to have some paint damage from the arch roller.
