Oh, that's a pull. Definitely leave that to pros. Ive only ever seen that on the rear fenders tho. You can seriously eff up yer car if you don't know what yer doing.

Basically the method I saw was to jack up the car, put a phone book between the wheel and fender, thoroughly heat up the fender to soften the metal, but not bubble the paint and then slowly lower the car so the phone book pushes out the fender. Then shift the phone book and repeat til you get the whole fender.

You got some ***** if yer gonna try that tho.

If your not doing it for fitment I'd suggest not doing it at all. All it will do is make your wheels look more sunken in. Its like buying a size 13 or 14 shoe when you wear a size 12.
