Default Shots of my Front Fender pull/roll/flare

Picked up an eastwood fender roller and decided i would try and flare the front fenders to make room for the volks. They were fine when i was going straight but were making contact with the fender and shredding my tire like a cheese grater.

heres some pics of how it all turned out. looks pretty good IMO since im not any kind of body work person. Luckily im not very worried at all about my paint/body...im not much for details, as long as i get everything to work right, im happy.

and they can go farther! Everyone says u have to re-paint. but unless your very nitpicky or something you shouldn't need a repaint, just some touch-up paint on the edges/inside. I'll probably go back underneath the bumper and put some of the black wheel well paint just to prevent rust.

The car looks really good.

How exactly do you "roll" fenders? Somebody shed some light on that for me please.

You can go ghetto and use a baseball bat.

Or do it the right way with a fender rolling tool and heat gun.

You can rent one from GoTuning.

looks like this

you use a heatgun to heat up the paint so it wont crack when you bend the metal
i have a thread about doing mine its not a diy but it gives you the idea
