I've got some super secret JDM wheels in the works and I want to know about fender rolling to clear the rears as they are going to be wide. I know they have the fender rollers that bolt to the hub, but those are kind of pricey. I also know that you can do it with a bat, but that is kind of ghetto.
Just looking to hear peoples experiences with rolling fender lips and if you have tips or tricks besides use a heat gun.
Thanks!
There isn't anything to it. The fender roller and a heat gun. The trick is to take your time and not crack the paint or try to pull too much at one time.
There are some places that you might be able to rent a fender roller and heat gun. Check with some local car sites. Particullarly the 240SX or AE86 sites. They typically have a few people who put wide tires/wheels on cars and require rolled fenders. Someone might be able to hook you up with a loaner.
Try posting in your region section about it as well.
