I brought my Girlfriends car (2009 Mazda 3) to this guy to ROLL the rear fender lips due to the rubbing from a new set of wheels. I have rolled fenders before and have done so very successfully without damage to the vehicle, So it would be safe to assume I know the process. This guy adjusted the tool and tried to flatten the fender lip in one pass and chipped the paint all along the edge of the fender. After that he test fitted the wheel and told me to drive it and see if it still rubbed. The tire still scraped, so he resorted to cranking down on the tool even more and pulling the fender out and "flaring" it. All he ended up doing was cracking the paint severely and bending the fender lip so that it looked VERY un-professional. He told me it was not his problem and that he would not compensate me. After 20 minutes of going back and forth, I decided to leave and pay to fix it on my own. Stay away from this guy.

I have been looking around to get the fenders rolled on my 03. I have seen that post on Craigslist, was gonna contact him. But after seeing that result i will stay far away from him.
Thank for the heads up

Mustangs are a lot easier to do for me since I started rolling fenders on them back in 1989, they are a lot thicker metal than an import and they are really hard to fuck up. 925 GT contacted me a few times but I was very busy doing something else, but I wanted to do them today for him since I didn't have much going on today and wanted to make sure to have a clear head and take my time since that Mazda has very thin metal and I didn't want to do what that guy did, I am very sorry I couldn't have done them for him.

I wanted Lee to do them, but time was an issue. Lesson learned.
I didn't pay the guy shit. He owes me money as far as I'm concerned.
