K before my wheels come in i need to either roll my fenders or just have F1 cut the fenders when they install my srpings and wheels. I need to know what you guys think... pay 100 bucks to have my fenders roll and pray to god that my paint dosent chip.. or just get my fenders cut for free at F1.

 

just cut them.. you cant tell their cut anyways.

 

yea my main worry is what if i hit a bump hard and my tire goes flying up and rubs against the cut fender... wont the tire shread?

 

def roll

 

I rolled mine two weeks ago and it was not hard. Plus if you cut them you take more of a risk of cracking the paint and clear coat.

 

roll. don't cut. you'll need to prevent rust from forming too if you cut them. paint will chip if you roll if you're getting it rolled by an not so good shop/it's done using hand tools. get the fender roller and do it. to be extra safe, mildly heat up the fender parts to be rolled. not a problem at all.

 

I had mine shaved by Status and they did a really good job. As long as they know what they are doing, there will be no ill effects. You can't even notice it. To properly roll a fender, as seen done to my friends BMW 3 by a Ferrari shop, your fender must be heated and then rolled. They did a really good job, they better if they are working on Ferraris, but I just didn't like the idea of them having to heat the fenders to roll them. In my case, they cut a small strip from my fender and then shaved it down a little bit more to smooth it out.

 

OH my god did not think of that .... sold on rolling... thanks sen_jen

Ya the place im taking it to "Lucent Motorpsports" works on porsches (they own a CGT)... ferraris... Benz... BMW all that good stuff

 

k well thanks for the input guys !!!

 

I say Roll.
I have been looking for someone to roll my fenders in NJ.
If anyone has any info post it up.

 

As long as it is done right there shouldn't be any rusting with cutting/shaving your fender. Either way is fine . . . . as long as it is done right. Rolling your fender has it's negative points too. Heating the fender so it can be properly rolled could damage the paint if not done right.

 

I am planning on having my rear fenders rolled.

 

Just go borrow or rent a roller. It is not hard at all. I can help you with it, just send me a PM.
