more than likely a pioneer djm600 if there cdj's lol.

alot of people use a broom handle with a couple different size wheels/tyres they can roll the lip up perfectly... gently rolling the car back and forth with the broom in between the arch and tyre...

So long as the original metal in the arch is metal & not rust, it is quite easy to do yourself, but all too often the paint work on the outside can flake, then you are risking water getting in & speeding up the rust.

Most sensible wheels with a 49mm offset don't need arch mods. What wheels have you got?

trim em off with a grinder. worked a treat on mine

Only downside to that is your then left with a rough edge and if not treated will rust!

If you do it yourself, get a heat gun on the paintwork to try and minimise the cracking of the paint. Not too hot else it will blister!
