Default Anyone here roll fenders?

May be selling my AP2v2s and going with a more aggressive wheel setup in the range of +45 all around. I'm lowered on Eibachs and will need each corner rolled--nothing major, just a clean roll done right. I don't think I'll need the rear bumper tab relocated. Would be nice to do this as soon as April hits before I buy the wheels.

I've never done any fender mods before. Is there anyone here that can help? I will drive to you and pay for your time!

Too bad you are not in Rochester. There is a shop here that will roll them, or rent you the tool to do your own.

Mark - Rochester is not too far of a drive You can get there in about 3 and half hours.


Send a PM to Jeremy (Ridgercr) - I believe he is stuck in New Zealand on his way back to the states. I'm sure he'd know of places that are local where you can get this work done. Also have you talked to any bodyshops? If they can do it, then you probably want to check with Frank & Sons in Scotia. They did the work on my Si and I was very happy with their quality of work.

I did my own with a rented roller and a heat gun. I also had to trim my rear bumper and move the tab. That required used of a hammer, punch, and dremel. It wasn't too hard to do without ever doing it before, and total cost was under $100.

My rear wheels were 17x8.5 +45 and my tire was 245/40.

Might as well relocate the bumper tabs as well. Not hard to do. Make sure you find a reputable place to do the rolling. Great guy for it near me but I'm sure it's a bit of a drive for you. Did mine all around and relocated the bumper tab. I don't rub at all now. I am lowered about 2" and have 17x9 +44 all around. 225/45 front tires and 255/40 rear tires. I have some negative camber as well. -1.5 front and -2.5 rear.
