I'm about to pick up a set of 17x9 and 17x9.5 rpf1 and I need to get both front and rear fenders rolled and possibly tabs relocated. Anyone know any professionals that are good at fender work locally around seattle? Thanks!

 

Carnutz in bellevue

 

any idea on price?

 

I've heard a lot of good things about Garage AutoHero / Ray. $25/fender I believe. He's done a lot of my friend's cars and they look pretty good. You will crack paint though so be ready with some touch up to seal it off.

 

I had Carnuts in Bellevue cut my rear fenders a few years ago, I think it was $60 a corner after me and another member worked them down a bit. They do allot of high profile work in the area (they are next door to Park place) If you want to relax knowing your shit is going to be done right then take it there. Any other place is a gamble. I don't like the idea of shady fender rolling with cracked paint for a few bucks less personally. If you do go to Carnuts just tell them the s2k club said you were doing a corner for $60 and make sure he’s still on board with this, its been a wile and things get forgotten if there is not a regular stream of folks going in for work.

 

Yeah I didn’t think about Ray, I met him through someone last year after I had my wheels widened. No commercial outfit will touch them so I have him mount and rotate my rear tires now. (His machine is just about too small to fit my wheel on it lol) I don't know how I feel about having him do any other work. He is a nice guy, but his shop always seems to be in disarray with constant people/friends hanging out. I don't think I could relax leaving my car at his place unattended for more then 20min to be honest. I'd be worried some kid would be using my hood as a holder for his soda pop wile he's shooting metal shavings all over it from the beater 240 he's cutting up 3 feet away.

I will say I’d like to give him more business because his type of shops are disappearing, he's likely a good guy to have in the area, business is obviously good for him as he just recently expanded into the other 2/3's of the building. I'd say to the OP go check it out for yourself and see what your impression is. I hate to dog on his shop too much, I’m just a bit anal when it comes to other people handling my ride, I don't do it much so i'm a bit paranoid.

 

If you to to carnutz talk to Joel or Ryan and tell the Kevin w/ the s2k sent ya. I'm planning the same thing but I'm waiting on the weather.

 

Post some pictures once you get this done be nice to see the work

 

k looks like car nutz it is.. thanks for the info!

 

yeah, depending on how yours turn out, I may have to go there as well. cheers!
