i have looked at the tutorial about this in tutorials and FAQ's, but i had one slight worry about flairing the arch, would this cause the paint to crack? justr want to be sure before going ahead with it...

when your flaring the arches use a heat gun or hair dryer and warm the part up that ure flaring, should stop it from cracking
