abu Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) If you need rims to get around on man, you know where I am. ah awesome, thanks heaps man. I got some rims on the car but if it bounces it will touch the guard and the last thing I want is to cause some damage. I don't want to reset the suspension just to drive it somewhere to get the guards rolled, so hoping someone can just come around and do it. Worse case I'll just put some other wheels on and drive it somewhere, once its drivable that is.

Mine were rolled only.. and they developed slight spiderweb cracks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206449-mobile-guard-roller/#findComment-3653905 Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam-__- Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Can't you 'make' a crack along where you want it to before you start rolling to minimise cracking in unwanted areas? Just say you were just rolling the inside lip and you were scared of the paint cracking out to where you could see it, can't you get like a stanley knife and make a scratch inside the guard so that when it's rolled, IF it cracked, it'll crack in that spot? Did I make any sense? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/206449-mobile-guard-roller/#findComment-3653973 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I make any sense? Yeah was just talking to LEANBAC about this before, if you cut lines into it, it folds over easier so causing less strain on the paint and stretch, if any. But I haven't seen/heard of people cracking the paint by just rolling the lip in, so not flaring the guard. My friend had his R32 done not long ago and it was fine, also my cousin used to do guard rolling and it used to come up awesome. They didn't used to flare just roll the lip as they couldn't guarantee the paint wouldn't crack.
