where to get fenders rolled?
Theres a guy out of Orlando that posts up on TR and N2S from time to time that rents out his roller.
I usually do the baseball bat method.
If your not comfortable with doing this then dont. This is ONLY a suggestion.
Take a baseball bat and tuck it in between your tire and your fender. Bend down with it and start to roll it left and right until the lip starts to bend up. Follow the contour of the tire to work your way around the fender. 'Usually' you only need to do the top portion of the fender.
I think I have a pic somewhere that might show a fender I've done. Looking now,..
I found a couple of my wife's Cobra that kinda show it. Not the best but hopefully you can get an idea. I believe the lip of the fender should not be completely removed because it offers some structural rigidity to the quarter panel. Thats my opinion anyway.

Sure, bring it by the house. Takes all of 5 mins to do.
I broke my bat (long story) so you'll have to bring one. Wooden bat,.. not metal.

I think Jeff, might have sold his eastwood tool, but check with him on it. He rents it out. I think its like 250.00 to rent it form him but you get like 200.00 back or something like that.

^^ I still have it. Yeah, $250 and $200 of that is a deposit and you get that back. I really only charge because after a few cars, the roller starts to get nasty and I'd like to replace it and any parts that might break or bend..like a wear and tear fee I only ask that you don't go do 10 cars with it while you have it. Do you and your friends car, that's fine

PS - I would do it for you but I'm paranoid about cracking someone elses paint. I've advertised that I'll do it for a little extra money (to sooth my axiety over cracking your paint!) but I don't even want to do that any more
