hey guys and girls. enjoying the summer!?

I've got some new Avonbar W&P's that need fitting. I've painted them and am gonna fit tomorrow.

the local garage quoted £50. is this worth it? i've got a rivet gun and some rivets so wondered how hard is to do yourself/qhat quality finish can you get?

the garage reckoned sometimes the arch have to be adjusted my fitting a bracket? this put me off! what is he on about?

any general advice etc?

cheers guys

Use the search, there will be loads of topics on this. You might find more information in Styling.

I would fit them myself if I were you.

brackets??? the guy is talking out of his arese. i have w and p replicas. i self tappered mine into place rather than poprovited. all i used to help was some masking tape to hold the arch in place while i tweaked it to exactly where i want it and then drilled it.

If using pop rivets watch out for the classic big scratch down your wing when the rivet 'lets go'
