Rolled my fenders (pics, little DIY)
I finally found a hot day to roll my fenders. now i can finally drive it hard whenever i want to. and also put people in the back seats.
you can use the "bat procedure" but since ive had a fender roller for a couple of years, i didnt have to use a bat to roll my fenders.
steps:
1) jack the car up take the wheel off
2) set up the fender roller on the car
3) adjust fender roller to where it puts some pressure on the fender lip
4) before moving the fender roller from side to side, heat up the paint with the heat gun
5) roll them and drink beer
6) go drive with 5 people in the car and see if it rubs.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Fender roller
heat gun
Imported Italian Beer

yes the paint cracked only on the inside as litte bit. but i covered it up with some tuch up paint so it wont peel off. i did this on my previous car and it cracked about the same. howver it never peeled off in about 3 years.

took me a while because i do things slow just to make sure i dont make a mess. about an hour each side im guessing. it can be done in less if you have done it before. id say a total of 3 hours conunting jacking the car, taking off and putting on the wheels, heating the paint, the beer, etc
