One Ton Garage in Mountain View. He charges 50/corner which is a bit pricey but he does excellent work. He didn't even crack the paint on my car and there were zero ripples.

For the GS and 1st gen SC's i strongly recommend shaving. Exact Motorsports does this work.

Here's a thread where several people including myself have provided some useful information.

Don't be so lazy, and do it yourself with a die grinder

The problem with doing it yourself is that if you are unskilled at doing it, you risk the chance of rippling and/or cracking the paint. Most of us do not want to risk that with our cars.

I don't think shaving puts you at any risk of any of the above, which is why I highly recommend it. You might get a slightly uneven edge, but it's the inside of your fender, so who cares.

I was referring to rolling the fenders. If you don't heat up the surface enough then the paint will crack and/or the metal will ripple.
