Pulled fenders

Alright im wanting to know who has pulled their fenders here on the forum? I have not found any information or pics. I would also like to know from those of you that have had this done how much you were charged.

The reason why im looking into this is b/c im looking at a used set of IForged aeros and the rear is a 10in with a est 30-33mm offset. So either i would have to run nasty neg camber or pull my fenders to make them fit right.

You can see there is not that 2nd crease on the fenders both front and rear...

I want to see how this looks on a G35 sedan, anyone ?

so you're planning to pull your rears? like.. out.. wider?
i think it's still possible just to roll your rears, neg. camber like robzone's front, get new tires every other month. but what do i know.. ask Grant, he's pro.

Well too much neg camber with a tt kit being installed soon will not be optimal for traction.

Ive already cut my rears and still need to roll them. Ive got a 10inch rim in the back now with a 43mm offset and they basically fit like a glove. These rims are the same width but will be pushed out almost a half inch more then my setup now. So just rolling my fenders will not cut it.

Yeah, you are going to have to come out quite a bit and still run decent camber. At -0.5 degrees I can't run more than a ~+39 with a 275/30 like a Falken 452 or something that runs narrow anyway. My Kumho's are way more square.

A+ on the wheel choice.

I did it to my rears, I used the tool from eastwood. It did chip the paint a lil bit, it was all on the inside it stretched to much but nothing a lil touch up paint couldn't fix and you cant notice now
