hey

just wondering if anyone has had guards rolled on an aristo?? and what the results were??

just got a set of rims that dont fit, ie, they sit out by about 2.5-3 cm's and i was wondering if it worth getting the guards rolled.

thanks
Mat

Do you mean rolled as in the inner lip is rolled in, gaining you an extra 5-10mm? Or flaring the guards?

Here's a link to a tool I found not too long ago. If this is too rich for your blood there's always the old bat trick. If you want to learn the bat trick, just write back and I'll explain it in detail. http://www.autobodytoolmart.com/pc-13742-527-4018-champ-fender-mender-tool.aspx

What did you think of the tool I posted a link to? It could pay for itself on yours, and rent it to some friends for a few bucks at a time.

$50 - $70 is very cheap my price is $80 - $90 with a guarentee no paint crack.

Retail is over $100. (this is what im told)

This is for each guard.

That is not too bad.

I really like the look of an Aristo with fat guards. Will be on my list once I get done with the performance mods.

i would also like to get mine done, like that inner lip folded up and then the guard flared out a bit, cos looking at my pics from the low down front shot the rims look fairly out at the rear. people know a good place in perth?

I have one of these tools on order in Brisbane atm to do my gaurds.

I'm happy to 'lend' the unit to people for $10 but obviously any postage or damage would have to be covered by the 'borrower'.

remember to heat your paint up before trying any method of bashing or bending.
