Picture request of rolled fenders.
Planning on rolling the fenders when the weekend comes. Can anyone post their fender that are already rolled? Im hearing that the baseball bat is the easiest, but others are saying its safer for the paint with a ruber mallet and a heat gun. Which one is it?

if your not into spending money on having it done a wooden louisville slugger works best.
the key is to going SLOW. there is no method that will guarantee you wont get some chipping or cracking of the paint.

Basically yes.... Picture the fender in a capital " L " shape, the tall part of the "L" being the painted side of the car. When you "roll" the fenders, yo are basically folding the lower part of the " L ", up to a " V " so the tires will not rub on the fender lip. This will only gain a few cm, but that's the cm that scrape the sides of the tires (with low offsets).
