I had a friend do mine and they didn't crack for a couple years until I wanted to get them rolled more. I went to a less reputable body shop and that caused me to have to get new fenders Most people on here have rolled & pulled fenders and their paint doesn't crack.
If you're rubbing on the bumper tab, you most likely won't have to roll your fenders after you relocate the tab.

So already the car got hit on base 5 days old(to me) and already has a passanger side door with a bunch of wrinkles in it and scratches. I got most of the scratches out but I can't stand the wrinkles. Talking to my body shop guy this weekend.
I am also trying to get rid of the front license plate bracket, what parts do I need to repair it?

well update time!!!!
Thanks to a lot of people on here I ordered a lot of stuff.
Yesterday I paid for a carbon fiber steering wheel
I ordered a bunch of stereo equipment and a custom made box from Zenenclosurers.com, gunna wrap it in blue suede. JBL door speakers running off a 4 channel pioneer amp, pioneer shallow well subs and a pioneer amp to go with it and a audiocontrol processor
Also ordered a cusco front strut tower brace and bc racing coilovers with swift springs.
I will update with pics along the way I am very excited to get all of this together, needed to fix the sound and the suspension on there now is way to low for my taste in the front!

You make me miss my 2011 is350 F sport more than I already do. The lease was up so I had to upgrade. Wish there was a 2013 f sport is350 with less than 20 miles or so where I could have gotten into. Congrats and enjoy. Best bang for buck, this car.

It was a little difficult doing so, just took a razor blade and used some heat to stretch it around the edges but it was a pain for sure. It looks a lot better in pics then person, but I am just OCD. Either way it looks better then that weird baby blue color stuff for the console!
As for my current projects here are my updates
I got a cusco strut bar today, but when I went to install the bar it didn't fit. It bolted up fine but I couldn't shut the hood!!! Any ideas?

I have to say I really am enjoying working on this car. My previous cars were fun to work on as well, but the enjoyment of upgrading this car is completely different then anything besides my bike to work on. Its just such a nice car to own
