Default Repairing/flaring front fenders

So my tire caught the fender tab on my front driver side and pulled it down and out, damaging the fender... (I'll get some pictures when I get a chance)

Does anyone know of any places around the South bay that will be able to repair my front fender and possibly flare them (if necessary)? The fender's bent out enough that its already "flared" a little.

the same thing happened to me last summer.

the first thing i tried was rolling the fenders, since a few people were able to smooth out the damage. it didn't fix the problem, but at least it gave me some more room to prevent future rubbing.

then i took it to a body shop (kreative customs) to get both fenders smoothed out, looks as good as new now.

Andy over at Gene's Autobody fixed my fenders and will be fixing my lip. They actually just did one of the ATS Garage cars, the same thing happened to him and it came out perfect!
