Default Fender Rolling

Where have you guys gone to do this in the GTA? I may try it myself but I don't want to crack the paint.

its real easy, just take your time, buy the fender roller its around 200-300 bucks, most places will charge around 50 a fender which usually is the same thing as if you buy it. You need also an industrial type of a heat gun...



If not.. Speedstar is your place, they take the time, are a bit pricey but well worth it!

I rented the roller from John (O'Mally 808) or something like that, he posts on these forums. Wasn't very hard to do, I just took my time. I don't know if he still rents it but I thought it was a great deal.

Thanks for the replies, my only worry is having to relocate the bumper tab, because I don't want to modify the body by cutting the quarter panel... Would I be able to squeeze 17x9 +40 with a 255 in the rear without relocating the bumper tab? I'm lowered, but not slammed, about 1 finger gap in the wheel well.

Speestar did my roll. IMO, they did a great job fitting 18x10 +57. The bumper tab had to me moved, but no body parts cut... only a bit of the rear bumper.
