Good job man, rubbing is no good and rolling the fenders is the best thing you can do...let's get some pics with the wheels?!

Looks good. I rolled and pulled mine but im not too happy with the outcome of the pull. when you look at where the fender meets the bumper they are a little uneven and its annoying the hell out of me

i noticed how the rear fender lip is not flush and has like a step up extra layer. Does it affect in any way when you roll the rear fenders?

I thought you can't roll the fenders and you have to grind them or something?

Nah, if you run a pretty serious offset then you have to shave the fenders....which I would not do cause you ruin that pretty little Lexus!

Shaving ur fenders aren't going to ruin anything, I got mine shaved cuz honestly the fenders pretty thick and it hard to roll the back without pushing the fender out messing up the alignment with the bumper...but if u roll it right, then it's a different story
