Most shops won't do it AND guarantee that they won't fuck up your paint. May as well try and do it your self. Tirerack.com sells a tool.. or go with the old tried and true baseball bat method [Smile]

if you still need it, i can do it. just has to be on a weekend, i have the eastwood tool and have done it for over 50 cars. the key thing is do it slow and precise and with a heat gun. stock paint holds up good, but most after market paints will crack as they paint over an existing paint and have no flex compound.

send me a PM

I "rolled" mine with a hammer and painted the result with rust inhibitor. Tried the bat, it was taking too long and too much paint off, but im not a very patient guy [Big Grin]

highly recomend not doing it if you dont have to. i used a machine and it rippled my fenders.

I also want to roll my fenders, not sure if I can have someone do it for me or just buy the eastwood tool and do it myself.

if you want your fenders rolled just send me a pm.

The ripple is because you are doing it wrong.
