Just ordered a pair myself. I will deffinitely need to roll some fenders. I am in the process of moving so I dont have the time to roll them myself. What would be a reasonable price to get a shop to do it for me. anyone in southern california would be a closer estimate.


* didn't mean to jack this thread...

they will over charge you, just get a wooden baseball bat and wedge it between the wheel and the fender and just roll it back and worth. it will give you the same results

USE A HEAT GUN. There's a good change the pain on the car will chip if you don't heat it up first, and the metal / plastic will bend a lot easier if you use a heat gun. They're like 10 bucks.

I'm sure a quick internet DIY search should yield something useful along these lines. Thanks!
