lol...i was just kidding...

just from around the bay...

bokus tl-s was rolled and pulled slightly in the rear...

kirans tl was rolled...

ravis old tl from back in the day was rolled

johnnys tsx and mine are naturally roll in the front from the wheel...i could roll the rear..but i literally have 1mm of space for wheel play...but if i were to put my new setup on...thatll be a little different...+38 w/10mm spacer lol

alot of people on this forum have rolled their fenders...

especially the tls from HI(revision audio)

im surprised 02type-s didnt roll his to fit his setup...19x8...8.5? +40? or high 30s?

i was just saying that everyone was pretty much going the same route as far as responses, then you had to go ahead and put a serious response about people who actually rolled their fenders.. how dare you!

I need to do something with the very inside edge of the fender lip on mine. How easy is it bend up (in a bad way) the fender trying to do with a bat or pipe?

If i were to use a Bat, the only bat i would use is a wooden one. Its much easier on the paint.

A heat gun and a bat will make quick work of the fender.

Haha... please dont use a bat. Best way to roll a fender is to get an eastwood fender roller. It will just roll the lip flat but wont damage the outside fender.
