Arches were rolled yesterday, would highly recommend Archenemy very friendly and did a great job, no rubbing or scraping at all now.

Thanks nas, wish I had the performance of yours though! No worries aydin don't kill yourself to get there would be great to have your minter there too.

Looks lovely, gorgeous colour and wheel combo. Up north I had my arches rolled in Wigan by Pemberton Tyres, only charged me £50 in the end, always better to get it done prior to respraying as they don't guarantee the paint won't break.

Yeh you're right he said the same and made me sign a disclaimer to in case any damage was caused. £50 is awesome but I suppose down south we get the London tax and have to pay double. I paid £100 in the end for the two rears to be rolled and for the front wing to be heat gunned abd rubber malletted back, ever since I'd had the car the front tyre on the offside would always catch the arch when going round a corner. It's all good now though.

My cars going in to the body shop in a few days again as I've seen some serious rust in the upper parts of the sills, applied some brush on rust stop but wanted to properly cut it out and weld new patches in... The never ending joys of owning an e21 I guess.

£100 is fine, that's what I was quoted, but when I got there he really liked my car and didn't want to do anything too drastic! Rolled the rear ones and just skimmed a little from the inside alloys at the front, why it turned out cheaper as it didn't really need as much of a modification as yours did I'm guessing.

I'm having my front floors cut and new ones welded in July so I know where you're coming from. Hopefully it will mean a solid car for the next ten or so years. Or maybe that's wishful thinking

Hi, car looks great, looking to get the arches rolled on my 02, can you PM me the phone number or address of Archenemy , thanks Andy

Google arch enemy and their site comes up with all nationwide franchises. They do good work and sorted my M3 out.

Hey Andy, here is the website: http://www.archenemy.co.uk/?page_id=35

As mark said top guys. Make sure your arches are rust and filler free otherwise you may have a few cracks and additional damage to contend with.

Thanks Guys

car looks awewsome!

Cheers Tommi, it's almost to the point where I am satisfied with it. Once it gets to that point not sure what I'll do, I normally end up selling cars at that point after a little while and look for a new project! Hope not with this one though!
