As long as the place doing it takes it nice and slow and uses a heat gun to flex the paint, you shouldn't have any issues.

Spend a few hundred dollars to get a top notch panel beater to do it, rather than beer money with monkeys at a tyre shop.

One local panel beater did'nt want to touch it because he wasn't confident that he could do it without cracking the paint.
He also said that it could cost up to $350 to spray each gaurd to match the original paint work if in the event that it does crack.
Another reprable panel beater said he'd do it for $40 a gaurd but also couldn't gaurantee he wont crack the paint,but he did say he would heat it and take his time.
Just got me a little concerned though.

I doubt you will find anyone willing to do it guaranteeing that they won't crack the paint, but as long as they take their time and use a heat gun, they shouldn't have any dramas!
Usually costs around $55 per corner for a specialist to do..
