Anyone out there who had their paint crack after having their fenders rolled? Just wondering for those who chose to use touch up paint. Is that all you really need or is there other options out there to prevent it from rusting. Don't necessarily want to be spending $500-600 at an autobody shop. Feedback please!

I would have just cut my fenders, because that's what I did lol.
I used touch up paint, I tried Toyota super bright white, that was a no no. Then I used Toyota White Pearl, That still sucked. If you want it back to normal a shop is the best bet.
Or have a side project and work on it yourself. That's always fun.

did you run a heat gun through the area and use an actual fender roller or did you bring it to a shop?

are you talking about the fronts or rears... or did you mean both?

Had someone roll them and he's reputable in my area so I'm not completely sure what happened. Yeah he used a heat gun but maybe for not long enough. And used a mallet. Ya rolled all four. This is the worst fender. The rest are small and under. This side is almost out

Hahahahahahahaha. Exactly. BOY OH BOY... I'm buying touch up paint tomorrow but can the paint seal the gap so that it doesn't tear out anymore?

Oh ... I think I know who that was. The mallet method gave it away. ... he's a cool guy

He rolled mine too, although mine didn't come out like that

Yeah hahaha. I think maybe I distracted him with all that talking we had because the two hours flew by so quickly. I could probably touch up paint everything else but I'm not sure about this fender. He's really honest and chill though so it's all good.

Yeah, looks like not enough heat and lack of usage of a real fender roller. I plan on cutting mine to avoid this issue.
