Thumbs up Fender roll

Anyone know of a place in the Bay that rolls fenders? Just put my 18's on and the front liner is rubbing a bit. I just lost 3 liner clips too.

You could probably just trim off the inner liner.

This is something nice to have but I wouldn't be using it after I've completed the job. If your pretty good at it, you should charge to service other members. I could be your first customer.

I thought about this but the pieces cut wouldn't be held together with the clips. I also read that some members tucked their liners above the wheel well. I just don't see how this would look appealing.

If you'd like to rent it, I can probably work something out, along with a heat gun. Just PM if you're interested.

The tool is very handy to have for sure but just a word of caution - be VERY careful using it since you must heat the paint up evenly.

If you try to go a bit too fast, the paint will definitely crack and at that point it's either a repait or touch up paint.

In other words it's a very risky process so go very slow and take your time. I've done some fenders and can tell you the euro cars are very difficult. The s2000 seems easier with the thinner metal but that also means any strong pressure will crack the paint since essentially you are bending a metal painted surface over itself.
