    easy enough to do on an s2,i always use a panel hammer and dolly with a piece of cloth between dolly and outer arch.sometimes its best to cut some small slots in the inner lip to prevent to much stretching and paint cracking,best to seal it after too with some stikaflex

      I'm sure GT500 will be able to de a very good job for you Jamo. He was trained at Aston Martin so he knows a think about panel beating.
      Just some finishing touches to do now

                    I am not so bothered about the rolling of the arches as they are fairly tight already. However I am having my arches pulled in the next couple of week to give them a larger flare. I have searched for the post on here but I can't find it of a S2 with rs4 wheels that had it done it was dark blue / black and it looked amazing. It was sold to someone on here or the quattro forum. I would like some pics so that I can replicate it. Any help appreciated.

                          I only remembered about it because Jamo posted on that thread recently.
                          Cant remeber seeing brooksy posting up a how to though, have a look through his previous posts.
                          I recall montego or maestro arches being involved in the equation though

                            Brooksy sold the car to another forum member, his arches are nice

                            The best one is RS2002 white RS2, genius work.
