Rolled/Pulled fenders on a leased Lexus from DVNL

Hey All,

A little background info - basically i am self employed and lease my vehicles but this time around my setup for my is350 requires rolled (possibly pulled slightly) fenders........

Will this cause major issues for Lexus?

How much would it cost me to repair the fenders if needed?

Anyone from DVNL (Don Valley North Lexus) on this board that could also chime in would be greatly appreciated.

TIA to all.

I'm not that familiar with "rolled fenders" but the lease return procedure can be very stringent. Don't be surprised if they insist on replacing both fenders from the famous Lexus parts bin and spectacular service rates.
I'd ask them now, to avoid an expensive surprise.

Its not within the parameters of your lease to modify the body. You can have them repaired at any body shop. Rolling the fenders may not be obvious at the time you return the car but I wouldn't risk it personally. You can always buy the car out at the end of the lease.

If I rolled it they'd have no idea it was done.

The likeliness of them finding rolled fenders in their walk around is so slim.... I doubt they would even notice a mild pull to be honest.
