How much did that fender roller cost? I had some bare metal under my car, i covered it with the "do-it-yourself" rhino lining from checkers. I think if you cut, it would be a good idea to get something similar. Listen to the guys who have already done it, no lessons learned like when you fu:ck up.

dammit! boss said he threw it away already! be careful if you do use one tho! im pretty sure it could mess up your paint if you use too much heat. maybe just a hair dryer? our guns are 1500 deg. i think hair dryers are like 5-700ish? i think even if you get it to roll good, it still might start cracking later. i remember my friend tellin me that after he rolled mine. he did one perfect, but after a couple of months it started cracking. ill let you know when i grab more guns...you can borrow one if you still need it

I would sell the kit separate... dont know how much i would ask for it now... let me know if your really interested... probably let it go for cheap since the paint wasn't that great to begin with... FCUKN MODIFIED AUTO.!!!!

here's a great link. basically, it's exactly what a shop would do. however, some shops don't use heat guns and it comes out oem like!
