Hyundai Elantra Forum The Hyundai Elantra Forum. Later models (96-up) of this 4-door share their Beta engines and chassis with the Hyundai Tiburon. Earlier Mistubishi-based Hyundai Elantras (92-95) are perfect candidates for the popular 4g63t motor swap, which turns the Hyundai Elantra into a real sleeper. These characteristics make the Hyundai Elantra a great car for those who want sports car performance with family car flexibility.

Default Pulled & Rolled Fenders?

As the title states, who has done this yourself, and how was it accomplished? do you have any before and after pictures that we all can see, and possibly any pictures of the actual process itself and what you used to pull & roll?



thanks in advance for any input on this subject!

Are Fenders atleast for the Rd guys is a PITA to roll, unless your Visionz and you pay to have someone beat and shape them with a hammer!



Yet, to use a fender rollers, if you look at the inside of a Rd fenders, there two layers of sheet metal, and there pinch welded which doesnt let them roll up evenly and makes them slightly wavy from an outside apperance, not bad enough to really tell, i gnargly rolled mine like DragonCatcher ^^^!!! just use a jack, and walmart WOODEN bat, SLOWLY lower the car onto the tire and bat, then just spin the tire with the bat in the well, does Take lots of time to make it nice, mine i did with a case of beer and a weeked, rear fender wells are worse. yet if you wanna flare them, there are DIY on Youtube for PhoneBook Flaring![media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BRBe9joBbA[/media]
