cullenmin Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hi folks, I need to get my rear wheel arch's rolled as I've just wrecked the rear sidewalls of my Toyo's Drove through to Abz today with 4 folk in the car and I kept scuffing on any bumps. I think I have just convinced myself that I need to strip the rear of the car as it is not much use carrying people in the back. Where can I go to have the arch's rolled? Preferably in the east of Scotland. Has anyone had this done in their classic before? Rich Link to comment

cullenmin Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 That thread mentions two places. I'm not after the US wideboy look, I just don't want any rubbing. Any more places tried and tested? Link to comment
scouk Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) I know where to find it i just don't know how to put links up Any advice welcome Actually i think i have just learned how to do it Basically take the full URL from the address bar and wrap it in [ url ] [/ url] tags. e.g.: [url="http://forums.sidc.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=127791"]This is my link[/url] gives you: This is my link Actualyl I think for a basic link you can just copy the full address into your post and the forum will automatically make it a link Apologies for the mini hi-jack cullenmin Edited February 28, 2009 by ScoUK Link to comment

euan_r Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 if its just the side walls then maybe removing inner lip would suffice but that could lead to rust issues if not done right. do you not have adjustable suspension now? cant say im that often four up. Link to comment
