Default Fender rolling?

Does anyone know of anyone/establishment that will roll fenders? I'm coming home to MD for a couple weeks next weekend, and I need to get my fenders rolled. Thanks, guys.

I just ordered a roller from Eastwood. I live in Shepherdstown, WV, just across the river from Sharpsburg/Anteitam. I wouldn't mind doing your fenders first so I can learn what not to do to my car

Rolling fenders should be relatively easy. The trick is to make sure you have plenty of heat in the paint before you start rolling. Also, roll a bit at a time, reheat and roll again. If you roll too quick and without enough heat, you'll get cracks in the paint.

You won't notice the difference unless you bend down and look up at the inside fender lip, and even then you have to know what you're looking for. Don't do it for looks, do it for tire clearance. With proper wheel offset the rear handles 255's without rolling, and the front can handle 245's.
