So et10 on back and et8 on the front with 9" all round?


If your not good with metal then you will need to call a pro. To roll and flare your arch.

You won't ever tuck them bad boys lol

Just make sure you get all the sealant off behind the arch before you do them ;) go wavy as hell if you don't!
