I have the same coilovers as Cale too, but I did roll my rears. The lip's not as accessible as the front, but it can be done. Another option is to use a hammer. I taped up a hammer with duct tape and hammered part of the front fender. It worked great. Just make sure you take it easy. If I wanted more clearance for the rear in the future, I'll just use a heat gun and a taped up hammer. Hammer time!
I might use a sheet metal hammer and see what I can do but I will most likely trim them by hand as it will give the most clearance

Looks good guys Did one of you buy the fender roller?
I borrowed it from a track buddy. Not really worth it to buy one and use it once. Are you interested in rolling your fenders too?

How bad is the rub? If it's just "a tad," and if cracked paint would bother you, I would consider not rolling the fenders.

I think I would be interested in doing mine. Even though I am getting new fenders, I would probably be able to sell the current ones easier if they were rolled.
