Cinci fender rolling
Hey guys, so I'm in Cincinnati Ohio and I'm about to get a set of rpf1's in 17x8/9 +45 with 225/45 front and 255/40 rear. You guys know of anyone in cinci who rolls fenders or should I suck it up and rent one online and try it myself? 
Thanks
Jeff

Ya I'm thinking about renting an online fender rolling kit from slidegood which has the eastwood roller and heatgun for $55, any experience with this and how much heat to use? I've heard heat it enough to where it feels like its been baking in the sun.

Yeah thats about right as far as heat level. If you're brave/confident enough, do it yourself (I used a pvc pipe).
Theres a german car shop in Indianapolis that rolls fenders if you want to make the trek. epwerks.com - 317-579-9520
You'll also have to relocate the rear fender tab which involves cutting the metal tab off, then relocating the screw further towards the rear of the car (drilling into the lip of the rear quarter panel).

Heh I personally thought rolling the fenders was easier.... I'm weird though. Something about cutting metal, sparks flying, drilling, etc on my s2000 was interesting (even though it was on the inside).

So I went to a shop in Fairfield called Turn in Concepts and worked with Tony. I have to say its a really great shop, very dedicated staff with lots of experience and dedicated to doing it right. Tony helped me align and do height adjustments on my car for 3 hours so that everything was within a hundredth of a degree. I definitely recommend them. Fender rolling was pretty good too. We took our time and no paint cracking or chipping. I give them a big
