congrats! lots of talk around here about that and someone finally bought one. Just remember to take your time. When you heat up the paint remember not to burn it. Keep the heat gun far away from the body. Then gradually pull the fender. Dont try to roll it all in the first few rolls.
Post pics when done also!
