strictly speaking you should not need to cut any of your rear arch/panel,just the front,once set up properly ( for me this was fitting some adjustable gaz dampers and hi-los), start with one side,and this is what i did,on the r/h side get a mate to turn the wheels to the left,where the tyre starts to foul the front panel/and/or bottom wing,mark with permanent marker where the foul line is,and use some common sense and guestimation,start cutting metal away from the penmark,keep doing thisuntil you can obtain full lock,then do the same on the other side,finish by rolling back the cut line,and colour match,once all this is done then adjust your hi-los accordingly,just a rough idea,and this is what i did,some may do it differently,but this worked for me!
