Basically you slide the cylinder forward and then pull it back and the impact of the cylinder against the end of the pole just pulls the fender out. So the part where my fender and bumper meet doesnt come back in and its smooth all the way across the fender if you know what i mean. You roll looks real good tho, i wish i did it myself. I took it to a shop and i told the guy i just want a light roll, well he didnt listen so now my rears dont look as aggressive as they should be.
yes i've heard the slide hammer, but i dont want to buy one then use it only once lol so maybe ill ask around some of the local body shops might have one they'll let me borrow.

and i just could not pass up this set of brand new, still in the boxes, Volk TE37's in 19". traded my gt-v's for these within 2 hours of talking to the guy via text message and ended up driving to his house to do the swap.
Glad you like the wheels! Can't wait to see them mounted up tomorrow! the rear fitment couldn't have been any better!
I was wanting to pick up some TE37 SL with a 19x11 in the back, but I didn't want to pull my fenders anymore then they already are. I'm glad someone is doing it, it should be sick man.
thanks again everyone. i had to tweak the pull a little in the front for the wheels to clear, but hopefully itll be fine. ill try again once i get the tires on to see if there are any turning issues
