Default Rolled fenders?

Anyone have some pics of a tc with rolled fenders. When i get rims i was thinking about professionally getting the fenders rolled. I love that m3 look from the back if it will look something close to that

Rolled fenders like rolling the inside of the wheel well upwards? I know I've seen people do it, but I don't understand how that looks like an M3...

And it is something you can do fairly easily and I'm also pretty sure there's a DIY somewhere...

rolling the fenders is rolling the inside of the wheel well upwards, not rolling the body line outwards, which is what i think those two first guys are thinking... those are flattened/pulled out, not rolled.

you def would not want to do it yourself.. they heat up the fenders with a heat gun, and use a professional roller that connects to your wheel hub and spins around, bending the fender up and out.. That way it does not crack the paint.

I would honestly do it professionally... i don't think it will look like an m3 though.. it would push them out a bit but m3 style is pushin the fun a little too far

Im going to roll fenders on my tc in 2-3 weeks. My new wheels are 18x8 with 35 offset and im dropped on stech springs. I'm thinking about renting a fender roller and heat gun and do it myself. I'd like to get it done professionaly but tc is my dd.
