RA28GT Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) Hey guys i need my front and rear guards rolled on my RA23 for when i lower it. Can anyone recommend anywhere? Cheap is good :wub: but i also want a good job done. EDIT: After doing some research into this it seems Joe at Wheel Worx is the man to see, hes done my supra before and done a fantastic job but he charges for it these days. $300 for all guards rolled! Ill see if you guys have any more suggestions if not ill go there. Edited March 17, 2010 by RA28GT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Haven't had any personal experince, but Prospect Wheel and Tyre center that 13BT and myelf reccomended also do guard rolling. I have seen a couple of JZA80's and Soarers that they have and it seems to be pretty good. Might be another option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it may be alright on a tissue box, but i get the impression Troy doesnt wanna just stick a bit of pipe in the guards of an old school celica and hope for the best.

jono1986 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Any update on this, like is there a place south of the city people can suggest, and what kinda prices have people been quoted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13BT_KE20 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Haven't had any personal experince, but Prospect Wheel and Tyre center that 13BT and myelf reccomended also do guard rolling. Ask for Corey or Mark, let them know I recommended you go there. They do ferrari's and other exotics so shouldnt have a problems helping you troy. I would recommend the DIY approach tho, heatgun and a rubber mallet is all you need. Your welcome to borrow mine if you like, i can show you mine (the fronts which i managed to do without damaging the paint) and explain how i did it Cheers, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
