I didn't see that fender roller at first. I ordered one similiar and it did okay. But it was not as nice and didn't fee as tough as my buddy's Eastwood. If it's for a one time use it'll work. But if you want a roller that will last, I'd recommend Eastwood for sure.

I bought it from LeXUsFeEVa he said it was a MEGAN Racing wing.
Here's a link although mine is not carbon fiber:

Sub Install
Well it's been slow for a couple weeks and parts have been building up but I finally decided to break down and use the time of which mother nature decided to dump an ice/ snow storm on us to install my new sub.
Kicker 10" 600W CompS Free Air
Side by side the difference in voice coil is not much but the magnet size and weight is defiantly larger.
At the same time I decided to 'attempt' to cure all the trunk rattles. I picked up some FatMat and felt tape. The FatMat kit came with a cheap plastic roller. I highly recommend buying a metal roller off Amazon for $7.
Here you can see the FatMat installed. Look carefully at the wire looms, I wrapped everything with felt tape! An old trick I learned in the stereo business back in the early 90's. Works great!

I found the seat belt mounts were the most prone to rattling so I doubled up on the FatMat and wrapped them with it. Here is the install with the sub and you can see my Rockford Fozgate 600 5 channel.
Took some extra and lined the flex prone areas of the deck lid.
