MACHIII in San Fran will do it for you. They have a really nice high quality fender rolling thingie that works great. Gruppe-S also has one, but I am not sure if they do that for customers. Check with them.

Nothing like a lead pipe and a little rolling action...

You can also use pliers, jack hammer or your own teeth. I guess it depends on what you are looking for.

As for myself, I just cut mine off with a dremel and spray painted it black to prevent rusting.

I don't offer any services that require cutting of the car but if you would like to stop by tommorow i would gladly let you borrow my dremel and help you out. May i ask why you're rubbing though, did you add a new part that may have changed the ride height of your car

Aluminum baseball/softball bat will do the trick too.

is there any benefit to doing either method? or, is the structural benefit of the 90' OE lip lost by both cutting and rolling methods?

I was just informed that there are alot of spot welds on the fender so cutting it isnt the best way. I guess its back to rolling them for me
