Need arches rolled..! Anyone know where in Cornwall..?

Hi guys, i have had my Keskin Kt1s on for a while now, problem is they are a little wide on the rear and I really need to get the arches rolled, but living in cornwall getting anything done is a pain in the ass...! Anyone got any ideas where I can get this done down here.

How on earth does that need rolling? Looks like you're still on tractor suspension!

Have you thought about giving it a go yourself? Jack it up, wheel off, plastic arch off and whack it with a big hammer, then seal the plastic arch back on.

I know it needs lowering a bit more than 40mm but the back tyres are getting b!tched by the arches..!! and wanna get them done first, would rather get some1 to do it..!

Where in corn are you? Liking the silver gti.. Not many Around! And did you paint the door handles yourself??

I live in Falmouth mate, you know any1 that rolls arches?  yea painted the door handles myself, was 1 of the first things i done a few years ago. They are just rear handles from a 5 door..!

Slam it and lose the plastic arches.

I prefer rolling nice round chunky piece of wood wedged between the tyre and lip to be rolled.  Abit more control than tw*ting it with a hammer.

An old baseball bat or wooden hand/banister rail works well.
