Ian, how did yours turn out and do you have any pics?

For the folks looking for fender rolling work, make sure to obtain references since fender rolling is an art. I have seen some fenders with waves and ripples from poor rolling jobs.

Thanks Ian. Late model Mustang fenders are not easy to roll either since they are so thick. I've rolled a couple Euro cars and it went like butter. The Mustangs you really have to put some elbow grease into it and of course that increases the risk of leaving bends/ripples on the outer fender.

Yes, VERY true! the guys new what he was doing though and it came out nearly flawless. No wrinkles or anything. Great pricing as well...

Make sure you use a hair dryer so you can keep heat on the panel, cause mine is still wavy now...other than that cool job, not tryna hate on you.

Damn, sorry to hear that bro! Did you point it out to him? He must not have heated it up enough. That sucks though bro...I thought he was pretty legit from what I saw [Frown]

Thanks bro,The fender roller took a shit on him first off. Then his dad came and I was talking with him about mustangs and next thing I know nick was done didn't check it till I got home. The reason why I didn't check that side was cuz the driver side was nice.

For the folks considering a fender roll, also look into a fender shave before making the final decision.

What color is your car.

White and silver paint will hide poor fender rolls. Colors like laser red, atlantic blue, etc, this will stick out like a sore thumb.

^^^ wrinkled fenders have been a fear which has always concerned me...... alot of the guys running GS series lexo's been shaving for a long time they have a lot of DIY Write ups on their forums....
