Default FRST re-shell wheel arch advice.

Hello all.

Any bright ideas of how to make holes in my arches before I go ahead and drill them out?

Im not glueing them on so need a method which will give me neat and precise results.

Cheers guys!

Grease on the studs, offer it up and it'll make a mark, then centre punch, then drill. Hope this helps

I do something similar....I make a mark using the object (in this case arch) as a template and mark using paint and a tooth pick, then centre punch, then drill.

good luck!
