I called TNT and they do it for about $30 a fender. I am going to see them next Thursday. Does anyone have any experience with their work? i am little nervous that my paint is going to crack. These knuckleheads in Reno not only quoted me crazy money but they are scared $hitless to roll fenders. I have heard good things about TNT just wanting a little feedback.

Anyway had the OEM wing installed today and it looks awesome. Yesterday had the Megan cat back installed and the car sounds soooo much better. This weekend painting the calipers silver and installing some BC Coilovers.

Once I get the fenders rolled time to throw on the TSW Willow's. Thanks for the info guys I appreciate it.

30 a fender is dirt cheap!!!!! rusty ya using the eastwood up there?

rolling fenders is rolling the dice, if u just angle it to clear chances are low u will crack but when u start going with a hem ur chances get higher no mater how much u heat it up with a heat gun.

TSW Willow wheels, 18x8 up front on 225/45 and 18x9.5 out back on 275/40. The wheels have a silver center and gloss black lips. My car is silver so it should look really good.

Test fit the 275's today and they are too damn big. I am going to dial it back to 255's up front. They were soooo wide.

tnt guys were awesome and quick. there was some cracking but you can not see it. i just need to trim it with a razor blade and brush over some clear coat so it doesnt flake further. he did a great job though. they have some seriously sweet cars there.
