So I finally found someone to roll the rear fenders on my Faleen. I was skeptical about using him because he said he's done new edge mustangs and foxbodies, but not sn95's...but since I saw pictures of his work on all other cars (euros, imports, etc) I figured I'd give him a shot.
I think he did a pretty clean job. Although I dont have anything to compare it to, it seems legit to me!
If anyone needs fenders rolled, PM me and I'll give you his contact info. He can come to you for the fee of gas money or you can go to him in Saratoga. He charged me $40 a fender if you go to him.
***As a side note, if you decide to go to him, his house in a rich neighborhood (i spotted hella porsches and a couple ferrari's as I was heading to his house) so dress appropriately
Here's some pics...
BEFORE:



AFTER:



And a couple pics from last night after I finished the coilovers (it's lower than it was but not dumped because street driving would kill my front bumper and undercarriage!):

Thanks guys!
Vin...yea he used a heat gun. He said he has a lot of experience and did over 350 cars last year when he lived in san Diego so he really knew what he was doing. Took less than an hour for both sides.

Btw I bought some headlight restore that's made by "blue magic" works amazing. They sell it at autozone for like 7 bucks. I couldn't believe how good it worked. Might clear yours up also, definitely worth the money.

Yes it scraped a lot on my passenger side. You can see the black markings on my "before" pictures...my tires got chewed up! I hit some big dips and bumps yesterday on the drive home and I didn't hear/feel anymore rubbing

On a foxbody and new edge you can get a little more aggressive with flattening them more, but on the sn95's there's no "lip" on the fenders so it can't hide any wrinkles or defects...so we decided not to go too aggressive with the roll. Plus, I was only slightly rubbing so this roll is more than I really needed.

Mo...hit me up and I'll shoot you dudes info. I don't have any wrinkles or chipled paint so I think he got the paint hot enough for it to flex properly.
