damn john, you must be REALLY desperate to get your fenders rolled...

why dont you wait till you get your wheels and tires before you do the fender rolling? it would suck if you rolled your fenders and it turns out its not rolled/pulled enough when you actually do mount your set up.

That's a risk I'm gonna have to take. I really don't want to pay $80/corner, especially all 4 corners. I'm positive I won't need to pull the rear, and I'll make sure when I roll the rears, It will be as much as possible. If it it still doesn't work out, I guess I paid $30 to roll the front two lol.

Not many people are available since it's 4th of July weekend. I won't be here next weekend, and I get my wheels the following week. Darn it. I might just meet up with him and do my car since no one else is replying to my PM's. I have no idea what to do.

But those 3-4 other people don't look as desperate as you...

I mean if YOU really need it done. Im sure you can find some place. Because if I know I needed to get something done I'd fork out the money and get done. No sense in waiting for other people if they don't need it as much as you do.

I see, I guess you can wait till the next time there is a fender rolling party.

Not sure. That is what I'm trying to decide on. Any parking lots that have outlets in em? Lol. Is there any store that might be able to let us use their parking lot and outlet? I won't have another chance to do this until I get my new wheels, and I would rather do before realizing I have to pay $80/corner. Lol

I know what you mean Al, but the whole point of doing the fender rolling myself is to save me money.

If you can afford some wheels where you need to roll the fenders you can afford to get them rolled...

Yeah, I dont think it's gonna happen. My coworker seems dead convinced his way works very well without a fender roller. You take the stupid plastic cover off, cut as much of the excess fender with aviation snips, then make little slits in the fender to reduce stress, and bend the lip up. He even has extra crappy fender plastic to cover up the "sharp edges which wont be a problem in the first place since they'll be rolled in and theres no way the tire can touch them. I think im just gonna do that.
