Default Fenders???

I am planning on putting 19's on my car, and need to roll my fenders. Anyone know a better method besides taking a bat or something of that sort and pounding it in? Any shops around here that do that easy work?

Thanks

Kelly

when you use a bat, dont pound on it. you can use a bat without fukkin up your car. just press down on the bat firmly and roll it across the lip. do a search is google, im sure there are instructions somewhere.

I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

There is ACTUALLY a tool that you can use to roll fenders.... bolts on to the lugs, and neatly rolls the fenders.

www.tirerack.com rents it. To rent it, it requires a large $$$ deposit, and about $50/week. There is currently about a 3 month wait list.
