rolled fenders?
ok so i have been looking for the longest time for pictures of SC's with rolled fenders i cant find any i really want to roll my fenders but just dont know how it will look because the fenders have no flare so what will it look like? can any one post a picture thank you
I know what rolling fenders is I have a SC and I want low offset rims but want to stay how low I am I just don't want to rolle my fenders and have it look like **** you know? Just trying to find a picture of an SC with rolled fenders because I would think it would look goofie because of the body shape
I think he's worried about dimples after rolling. If you're worried about that then you should get the fenders trimmed. I feel that rolled fenders are cleaner on the inside, but the downside is you're probably gonna get dimples. I got a few dimples on one fender, but I'm gonna get my car repainted so I don't care.
i am thinking about pulled fenders and just was wondering how it looked on a SC because i am pretty low and like the look but need to fix the camber and i cant because in the back the tires are not even a half inch from the fender and i want low offset wheels so i am thinking the best way would be fender pulling/roleing and wasnt aware of the diffrence but i am hoppeing this cleared up some things and am just wondering how it looks on a SC

To prevent wrinkling or dimpling whenever rolling the lip, you can use tin snips and cut the fender lip trim at equal intervals to relieve any kinking. Also, you should ensure that your paint is warm, either by sunshine or a heat gun, to avoid chipping or cracking of the paint as you roll. Lastly, take your time.

That snipping method is interesting. Never tried it but that could be good. The only way I ever managed to "roll" fenders completely flat without buckling was by actually cutting the fender lip off first and THEN giving the fender a slight roll (or pull would be more appropriate to say I guess).
there is a wheel and tire sticky at the top of this forum, that has hundreds of pics of wheels and tires with rolled pulled fenders, its hard to look through it all but there are other threads on the same topic, including one you started earlier titled "do i need fender work"

The first post in the wheel and tire fitment sticky has pictures and examples of rolled fenders.

+1 on heat gun. Don't even try it without one if you value your paint.
