Fender cutting

I'm joining the dark side, so besides VIP status in Torrance, who does a good job at doing so? Anyone know if they can cut it even though I'm rolled pretty flat already?

Preferably somewhere closer to the 57 freeway LOL

VIP Status I know does an awesome job at $45 each, will probably do it by the end of the week if I don't find someone closer for around teh same price range.

Thanks in advance.

to do it right it should look like this:



I'm not a fan of "pulling" - I've seen some pretty wavy lumpy garbage (on other cars)... but to each his own - maybe yours turn out better...

The reason it gets wavy is because of the spot welds, and as you keep going over it the spots get pushed out a lil farther making it wavy, with no spot welds it would come out smooth. and most people dont wanna drop that cash to modify the fenders the way you posted.

^^^wow, were your wheels custom made?

i remember waiting 3.5 months for my works. it was worth waiting for the custom offsets and color, though. but i hate paying for something and not receiving it for months.
