As some what mean as that post was... if you watch it and have any powers of observation those are valid methods to roll fenders and the language is only a minor barrier...

you shouldnt be doing it your self if you have no idea how to do it. rolling fender is an art, not anybody can do it.

but if you really want to do it here are some tips

-for the front you will run into tabs that holds the fender liner, cut them unless you want to fight with the waves

-heat the surface good, or you will crack the paint.

-depending how far you want to go, but the front fender liner might need to be cut

-you might want to think about re-locating your rear bumper tab, if you need a fender roll in the back, you are most likely need to re-locate the tab

again, if you are not sure about doing, dont do it, you will F*** up

Yeah I know it can't be easy that's why I was asking for some links to info or anything that would be helpful. I was really wondering about the fronts. I found some help on relocating the tab so I will do that at the same time. Thanks for tips.
