car is looking the goods Frank. Black with those rims /ride height/clean lines of the 964 - very nice! How is the new suspension and ride height? u getting much guard rubbing? my current set up is about same ride height with spacers and have issues but once KW's are on I may go RS height +5mm. Car cant go any lower as right now it gets over London speed bumps just nicely 
. Anyway - be nice to eliminate the rubbing from my ride as i tend to worry about whats coming up in terms of pot holes and the like.

The ride height is great, although I am suffering from some rubbing at front, I'm looking to have the front arches rolled.
Apparently it's best to you use a specialist tool to have it done, as opposed to panel beating.
So your timing is just right - considering you have had body work done, what can you recommend? Does your body work garage have this tool? Are they accustomed to rolling arches and do you recommend them as a whole?
I know the feeling about potholes
We really have pathetic roads here, compared to most of europe.

Frank - info back from body shop
"If you meant rolling the arch we could have done, but now it's painted, it would crack the paint & sealer. I've heard of a machine that apparently heats up the arch, paint & sealer and rolls it with out damaging the paint. We don't have one. we would have planished the arch with dolly and hammer then refinished the arch accordingly"
drat! - anyway - i think i should be able to set it up at a height where the stance is still good and it doesnt rub... i will let you know
