funy I should see this thread, I just got my roller and will be doing it tonight. C

 

i was even told you can fender roll with a baseball bat, from what a body shop guy told me.

 

I rolled my fenders using a similar fender rolling tool last weekend. I have absolutely zero body work experience, and this really wasn't difficult at all. I didn't have access to a heat gun either, but the heat and humidity here in Okinawa probably contributed a little. I only had to do the rears on my Evo IV, and I spent a good 30-45 minutes on each fender, going very very slowly and very carefully. I went back and forth 3-4 times on each fender, not a single crack in the paint or anything.

I'm about as noob as they come with stuff like this and I did it, so ANYONE can do it as long as you've got the tool.

 

clean work

 

man thats look so easy

 

bump for the noobies hope this will help!

I have 275's (18X9.5) and my fronts hit the splash guards. Is it OK to remove part of the splash guard?

 

nice work. I need to do this to my fenders as well

 

looks good!

 

yes splash guard (inner plastic pieces) should be removed. we removed ours because it sees more track duty than street now..but even for street, if you run wide sized tires, i recommend take them off just so later on it won't be all thrashed.. the inner plastic splash guards are pretty expensive from the dealerships..

 

i heard its better to use a heat gun and a hammer.

that the rollers r unreliable and all that.

but it looks good. cheers

 

show us a comparison my friend



hammers and anything with paint on it

 

great thread on info. for fender rolling!

 

thats cool.

 

nice!
