basically its the lip on the arch. if you put your hand under you will feel the plastic strip then a metal bit sticking out. its that metal bit that will be the issue. Depends who you know mate. I wouldn't pay more than £40. I've had mine done think it was about £35. You can roll or cut them, You need it done properly though as the paint will crack if not done properly then rust will get in...

is that for all the arches or just the back ones?

its just the back ones you need to have done

EDIT: apparently alo you dont always need them doing. it'll only be the drivers side that will rub as the axles are slightly offset

hope this helps bud
