Default fender rolling? in socal.

I'm just looking for a place to get my rear fenders rolled. I believe autobac/autotoys said that they would both rears for $60. Are there any places that you guys trust and will do a good job for less money? thanks

I just saw your thread. what did you do about the rear bumper screw that is continuous with the fender? did you leave that alone?

HKS thanks for the link.

I did not touch that bolt, but I read people filing it down or removing it and replacing it with a flat head. Some even just used zip ties. It was not causing problems for me so i left it alone.

Well after I took my car to get an alignment that dam bolt in the rear started eating away at my tire...so now I am debating on taking it off completely.

Well I took it off but it is still rubbing where the fender meets the rear bumper. Any suggestions on what to do??

its okay if youre rubbing over speed bumps, driveways, and bumps in the road. the expectation is not to rub when you driving straight on smooth roads at any speed. stiffer shock settings, narrower stretched tires, and more negative camber is the only cure if youre slammed, otherwise raise your car up alittle.

Thanks for the input, a buddy and i decided to buy an eastman roller which help justify the cost. We'll probably rent it out in the future.

That bolt is slowly destroying my azenis, so my goal is to eliminate it. I put my stocks back on for now, but when i get time I'll try to fix it and hopefully share my success in the thread that dqlostsoulz bumped in the tc wheel thread.
