for the record i only rub in super hard corners or when i go over a bump. and i'm sure that being on squishy stock struts isn't really helping. at least i have sways and endlinks.

someone lend me their fender roller!! i will pay to use

Get yourself a heat gun (you'll need it anyway) and a rubber mallet or a baseball bat.

There's a guy in mountain view that does it for like $40 a corner. Some legacy guys went to him with good results.
