Rolled Archs...

[S600VXR]

Well had them done..... and its off to the body shop now. Guy was very carefull but the nearside rippled badely as soon as he touched it. Looks like the spot welds were unevenly spaced and as such different pressure points occured. Offside was almost ok but since Im gonna spray one side I may as well get the other done. Any recomended bodyshops around Andover/Newbury area?

On a plus side Ive got loads of room now for some wider alloys.

We were very gentle. Guy did it as carefully as I would have but it just didnt go well. Local Vauxhall dealership are looking at it Monday as their paintshop is very good and I know someone who works there to keep an eye on the joyriders!! GGGggrrrrrr!

The flat edge on the outside of the arch that was horizontal is now flared slightly (6mm extra width roughly) and it suits the lines of the car alot... just the other sides ripples dont! 19 x 8" paahhhh 19 x 10" soon! :-)

Have a chat with Russels body shop in Andover on the Portway Ind Est, speak to Paul (Russel), he is very good, you could mention I gave you his name but he'd probably double the price!

Bad news man. Still, all be worth it in the end when you get less wheel spin in fourth
