Arch rolling

Does anyone know where I can get my rear arches rolled? My comps just scrub a little and I dont want to get the grinder out. I live near Solihull but will travel

I thought it was a bad idea to roll arches unless you weld the lips up as moisture and dirt collect there then they rot out. Just get the grinder out.

Hello Muz mate. I don't know why the post has ended up here I posted it on General. I'm not grinding the arches on the focus. I have just put a kid in your direction with a Genuine escort coz bonnet

Suppose you could seal them up. Just make sure no moisture gets in there.
