Will let you know :) going to use a heat gun so to try not to crack the paint if not I have someone on stand by to repair it if it goes Pete tong :D

In all fairness there's not a lot that can go wrong Kell. Apart from the paint cracking but plenty of heat should do the trick.

There loads of videos on u-tube as well. And some funny ones. Rolling them with a baseball bat. Haha

Pmsl I'll take a look on YouTube :)

Though one of my mates did his with an Argos book ?? And another with a round bar :/

Hoping I don't crack the paint as only had her resprayed in January and she had arches sanded down fillered and then all sprayed (professionally)

I'd be abit careful Kell if you have filler in them. Have you thought about using some camber shims on it? And yeah I guess the iron bar trick is similar to the baseball bat trick. Funny some of them videos.
