looks like this is how its been done, have just rubbed back the bad places and re skimmed them! there was no cracks on the actual arches tho the cracks were mainly on the seams where bumpers meet arches or arches meet skirts!
so they must have made a good job on fitting the arches! cos they do seem solid

Looking good mate
I have the same problem with my headlights, i cant get them out, lol.
Its nice having everything smoothed in, but i am allways worrying when i drive that i am going to hit something and crack it
I think pink with metalflake would make it stand out, lol
