Daishi · 01-22-2006, 11:49 AM

im thinking of getting the TEin S-Tech springs but before i do so i need my fenders rolled because if you look at it you can tell it will definately rub with my 18's and a 45 offset. Im currently in monmouth county new jersey and live in the town of freehold. Does anyone know anyplace around here where i can get my fenders rolled for a decent price?

academy or walmart.

or just use a buddies wooden baseball bat and do it yourself. i remember there being a member that would do it for others for like $50? you might check the regional boards.

but honestly, nearly the same thing with a wooden bat. saves you money and most of the time a buddy will have a wooden one. if not, buy one from academy or walmart and return it if you have to.

no worries you can dooooo iiiiiit!

I just did mines yesterday,
take wheels off, buy cheap wooden baseball bat (10$ at KMART) , you'll need a rubber hummer or just a stock black multi use wrench (kept in the trunk for you tire change purpose)

place bat under a fender at an angle that when you'll tap on the bad it will slowly push the fender backwards. it took me 30 minutes per side (I nedded to roll about 70% of the fender) no problems chips or dents.

temps were close to 80F so maybe that did help, you may want to use hair dryer to keep the metal (fendr) warm and be slow and carefull it is easy and.... you can doooooo iiiit!

yeah, it's not hard, just be gentle. you don't want to chip the paint. hair dyer would be better in this colder weather. i did mine while it was still hot outside. i live in texas, so that wasn't long.

Another way would be with a wooden dough roller. They also make plastic ones. A hairdryer and a dough roller would work.

Daishi,

Get in contact with Skills007. He has a fender roller tool, and he's somewhat local (Queens, NY). He's done fender rolling for us Coast2Coast6 guys.

Why don't you contact Skills, he has a fender roller and would charge you $50. He lives in L.I., but he and Nick talk a lot. Maybe you can meet him halfway, he rolled the fenders on Nick's Redfire 6!
