Guard rolling

Post by bjk »

Been quoted $90 and $100 per guard to roll. (Adelaide Tyrepower and Wheelworx). How is that compared to going rates?

Any people in SA know anyone who'll do it cheaper?

If you get a roller, I'll roll you for your roller.

Spend $88 for yourself to f*** it up.
Spent $2 more to blame someone else to fix it when they f*** it up.

I know which way I'd go.

    No, I actually didn't mis-read it, based on the fact of repairing the damage, I'd say paying someone is still worth it.

    But ehh...

    Next time I'll explain myself to the fullest. :roll: :lol:

    In the end, the cost to repair the body damage you 'may' cause will exceed that of paying a shop to roll the guards, and should they f' it up, at-least you will be covered.
    Make sure they will cover it, as some will say should anything happen we won't do anything. (realistically these days, everything should be in writing.)

    Nah, weve still got him there actually :lol: . Now im calling you on your maths ;) . If you were aware then its not $2 extra, its $102 extra for 2 guards and $302 extra for all 4. Keep digging, itll only get deeper.

    BTW not saying you are wrong in getting someone to fix, just want to see how deep the hole is going to get before you admit you were wrong. I suspect "never". :P
