My buddy will be rolling fenders at the Auto RnD meet on saturday and he knows what hes doing. $60 for two fenders. You can see the work he did on his own car here http://driftunit.com/photos/photoshoot/jerry/

This could be the worst idea in the world, but i did it to one of my old 510's and it worked great - stuffed some 15x7"s underneath it.

Good luck. Err...as for good shops, i dunno, haha.

I tried that on my old civic hatch... the bat picked up the whole rear of the car instead of bending the lip back.

it's pretty hard to do it smoothly with a bat. i'd reccomend finding the rolling machine that bolts to the hub.

LoL, so true. Fender rolling is not as big a thing in the FF/AWD world.
