Thats how we used to roll our fenders back in the 80s and early 90s. Dude def needs to fix the other stuff before worrying about rolling the fenders.

I don't think this is the first time that the car has been "fixed" with a baseball bat.

I did my fenders with a bat. Though I was a lot more careful, wrapped the bat in soft material, and used a heat gun. Don't know about this method though. lol

spend some time on VWvortex, this car is damn near show quality compared to most of the piles people roll around in on that forum. Remember, this is the community that invented "Hella Flush" they're all about as ghetto and lowcash as it gets

People are so cheap. Paying to use the correct rolling tool costs hardly anything and does a perfect job
