you're probably better off just buying one online and rent it out locally or just sell it and get some of your money back.

looks good bud!

we have the same one... but most of the time we trim the fenders on the rear, and roll them up front....

especially on the evos.... with the double stamped layer at the back, it tends to put a small crease in the rear outter fender edge....

very good job... you have to be patient when rolling fenders... i rolled my first set in 1996 with a baseball bat LOL!

did you have to re-weld the rear fenders after cutting it? the s2k rear fenders are also double stamped and i didn't really have a crease problem, maybe the metal is not as thick on the s2k. i did have to get it started with a block of wood and hammer because the lip was perpendicular with the roller and you need a little angle to get it started.

The guy who roled mine said he woudlnt do another Evo ever ... and he's done lots of different cars!

I saw an Evo 9 in Germany that had both rear fenders creased on the lip, looked a mess, and they haddnt rolled it that far back either!


I'm not convinced its as easy as some make out on here
