Pulling/rolling fenders

Haha, still have the roller and the heatgun in my trunk. If you were local, we could totally get drunk and do some fender work together!

Im surprised you took the part about Rota wheels seriously.

Tiago@VRSF · 09-02-2010, 04:02 PM

Damn you! Tricked again!

It will look fine with some aggressive wheels. But how would a shop fix the fender back to orig. spec?

You can fix that with duct tape. Park your car in DC and use a piece of duct tape to tape the key fob to the hood.

^ This is how it's done. What'd you use to roll them? Any tips for us who plan on doing it on our own?

i use a heat gun and a fender roller.

tips: heat the fender and then pull the inner line of the fender. dont pull too hard. heat, pull, heat, pull, heat, pull.

rolling the fender will keep it oem because you are just folding the inside lip. if you want it to look non oem you gotta do a little flare or pull...

as much as I think this has potential for some crazy fitment, the resale vale of this car just hit rock bottom!
IMO fender pulling is better left on cars whos wheels are worth more then then actual car...
