There really is no fool proof way of doing it without craking the paint or damaging some thing.

When the arch's are rolled the metal will strech more than is is meant to so will the paint and usually to get the desired affect you will end up with craked paint work.

This is odviously in an extreme way ie fitting 17's+ or an easier way for gus would bet to cut a slight piece of the wing out as the arch kit will cover it, and thenm tuch up the bare metal edge with a bit of paint.
