Fender Rolling in Socal?
Anyone have a fender roller for rent or know where I can get my fender rolled professionally in LA/OC? None of that baseball bat stuff (i've done it before).
I contacted CEC and Wheel Warehouse who said they only fender roll at the time you buy a set of wheels from them. EF1 Motorsport in Long Beach quoted me $50 per corner. I remember The Wheel Supply in Walnut quoted me like $30 per corner (I lost their contact info).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I cant put these on until I roll the rear quarter panels.

I went to Superautobacs to have my fenders rolled. It cost me $100 for both rears to be rolled. I rolled them myslef but it wasnt good enough and I was rubbing like crazy. I say pay the 100 bucks and ahve it done right and save your tires all at the same time.

Thanks for the replies. So here are my choices so far.
Super Autobacs will roll my fenders for $50 each. No guarantee against paint chipping.
The Wheel Supply (in Walnut) recommends cutting/grinding down the fender lip because they feel most Japanese cars use thinner sheet metal that can buckle from the pressure of a fender roller. On European cars, they recommend rolling instead of cutting. I've seen 240SX's where the rear quarter panel buckled from rolling. They use silicon sealant to prevent rust. $50 per wheel.
EF1 Motorsports in Long Beach. Fender rolling. $50 each wheel. No guarantee against chipping.

I had minimal paint chipping (on an xB) when superautobacs rolled mine. The chipping was all on the inside of the fender that's tucked under the car so a little touch up paint did the trick. The tool did a great job of rolling it nice and flat.
