Default Rolling Fenders

Has anyone done this to fit wider wheels in the rear? Wider wheels would look better in rear on a F

Yes, I did it myself to keep wider track tires from rubbing. But I would not recommend it to a novice with out the right equipment. If have not figured it out Lexus paint is very easy to chip!! And mine chipped bad around to the outside of the wheel well and regeted doing my self to save a $$. I would a shop with experience near you to do it.

I went to shop to have my GS done and the guy wanted me to sign a waiver. I then changed my mind and we ended just shaving it. It worked pretty well
