Had the fenders rolled...but the paint cracked

hey guys..had to get my fenders rolled today to run my setup...but the thing is the paint cracked....so i took it to a bodyshop and the guy said...pickup this item that prevents rust...and to apply it gently with a brush....then bring the car back to get it sealed up at the shop.....so the point of this post is...does this seem ok to do? i really dont want my car to rust and i dont want to get the rear quarter panels repainted...so to those have gotten their fenders rolled..what have you guys done? ...another problem is im getting my coils and rims on tomorrow..and getting the car slammed out...the lowest settings on the rear on the tein basics without removing collars....so the question is will the tire rub the underside of the fender...

Slow down man, seems like you're rushing thing...thats a no, no. First of all, did you roll your fender yourself or at a shop? If the shop did it, then they should be responsible. I've just rolled my fender as I'm waiting for my rims as well...had no chipping or cracking. Did you use a blow dryer and hold on it to the fender for 5 minute at a time per section? This will soften the paint to prevent cracking. Go to a diffrent body shop if i were you. Never heard of a place that ask a customer to do them a favor so they can help you out? Thats BS. A good shop should be able to take care of all of your issues...
