Anyone know who rolls fenders ?

[Edgarm8933]

I live on the NW side of chicago, need my fenders rolled and I’ve called like 20 shops who don’t do it and then one I found wants to paint my fenders as well (which I don’t need) I understand paint can crack but don’t feel like paying to paint the fenders aside from rolling them.

I think you are going to have a hard time finding someone to do it. A lot of risk for not much reward. Most seem to rent or buy the tool and do it themselves.

Last time I had it done by a friend he said the best way to not have a surprise paint failure is to razor blade a line at the part that’ll be bent and then roll the fender (not fully flat) and then use touch up on the cut.

When I did my old Cobra I trimmed the about a 1/4" of the inner lip, heated with a heat gun, and then massaged it with a dead blow hammer. I started top middle and worked evenly out to the ends.

I’m sure it came out perfect. Your attention to detail is insane and you are patient!

Double D's Fender roller was loaned out to shomuff and I had sent him a message a month back so I could do the Cressida and I haven't heard anything back.... I could really use it since I no longer have stacks of nudie mags to roll the fenders using that method

This how far on the tire I rub.

I don't use a baseball bat my Pecker works better

Full Disclosure: I cut my GTO fender lips as opposed to rolling.

Mangled the FUCK out of my GTO fender lips.

I bought this cheap China crap. It actually worked pretty decent.

I may need to look into that. My front m235i still need to be rolled, but I dont think they need anything drastic, so hopefully just a bit would be good and not enough to incur any paint damage

There’s a guy on Facebook that does fender rolling. It’s like $60 or $80 and he comes to you.
Uses a heat gun, rubber mallet and the Eastwood roller.
Does a pretty good job.

His name is Admir Dew.

Hey thanks a lot ! I contacted Admir and he came over my place and did it for $80. No more rub ! At least with me only, I have to get the wife to ride to see if it rubs with two ppl still or if it’s all good.
