whats up S2KI i got some kw coilovers on the way. so this weekend im planning on rolling my fenders for the first time. i will be using a eastwood fender roller and i have a heat gun. i get the concept behind it and have watched youtube videos of it being performed on other cars. i am looking to see if there is a DIY on this, i beleive at one time i had seen one on this site but have not been able to find it now that i need it along with the bumper tab relocation witch really dont understand what all your supposed to do for this? if anybody could post a link for this it would be great.

 

Good video that covers both rolling and tab delete

Great video!!

 

Issac (spunkysandoval) is the local SoCal fender rolling/mod wizard!

 

As someone who is about to roll the rears, do we have an area that we need to pay special attention to for the rear fender like this evo where if we do it wrong we can put a concave dent in the rear fender?

 

Yes he is, He actually did mine. Cool guy to add.

 

he did mine too

 

he seems like the man when it comes to fender rolling

 

check behind the lip you are rolling, there are sometimes rocks or excessive metal from factory that can cause dimples on the quarter panel when you rolled it

 

Not to be a stick in the mud BUT if you've never rolled fenders before I sure as hell wouldn't start on my s2000. Pay someone who can do it locally then you know it'll look good. Very easy to totally hack your fenders up not to mention crack your paint if not hot enough. Fender rolling is something you get a feel for over time. Good luck if you want to brave it, but fenders and paint are expensive especially the rears where its not as easy to fix a mistake. I'm all about DIY but I even paid our local wizard to do mine cause I know just how bad and ugly fenders can get, lol, just check out the gallery. The best rolled fender is a fender that you can't tell has been rolled.
