Ok so I'm getting some bigger/better wheels soon.

I got my hands on a brand new fender roller and I wanted to roll the rear fenders a little bit more. It helped out alot that they were pretty much rolled from factory, but I just rolled them a little more, mostly because my buddy was doing his 350Z..

Sorry for the shitty pics, this isnt my DSLR like youve seen in my past pics.



Mounted the Jack Stands--






Mounting the Fender Roller--






Rolling--











Heres the other side..

Heres where you can see what it looks like Stock.. I'm gonna roll em a bit further--






Didnt wanna go to far, but just enough..





and my buddy's Z--


It was rubbing his Wheels like crazzy!! But not anymore!

 

Really cool pics, I have never seen a fender roller before. Thanks for sharing. What type of rims are you gonna be sporting?
Oh yeah, btw...Tein Coil Overs FTW!!

 

Enkei RPF1's in SBC-- kinda like Scotterson's setup, just a big bigger just not as wide.

TEINSSS!!!!

 

+2. I need to roll my fenders as well. I've only got my Tein's set about half way. Just is tucking the tread of the tires. Need to go lower. Is it hard to use?? Did you buy the roller or rent it?

 

My Club bought one-- Very easy to use as long as you have a buddy, a heat gun and pizza/beer. LOL

It couldn't beleive how easy it was!.. I love Acura, the Fenders pre-bent. Some cars arn't like that and its hard to get the bend started.

 

looks like you guys did a really good job! kudos to some clean rolls!

 

nicely documented. looks like a fun process if you have patience, pizza, and beer.

 

clean job!

you're right about our fenders..when I had mine rolled, the fender roller thought my fenders were already rolled lol, the problem with the fronts though is that they're so sensitive and a minor roll causes a slight pull

 

1. Love your garage...
2. Damn you are slammed on coilovers haha.

3. ...did you apply a substantial amount of heat before rolling? cause when you roll your fenders you slightly flare them and you're essentially creating more surface area and the paint WILL crack... a commonly made mistake. Just hoping you applied heat.

 

^i see the heat gun in three of the pics

 

Yup Heat gun was essential for that.

w/ Heat it was easy!!

and yes I'm slammed but not that slammed, Im right where I wanna be for Daily Driving

 

yah, not that slammed. he's barly tucking 17's

 

if your tucking 17"...your pretty low

 

Plus my Coilovers have about an inch to go, but I daily drive it so I'm good where I'm at.

 

wow cool, never seen process in pictures or even in real life lol. I thought rolling fender you gotta use the hammer and kinda gently hit the curve up rofl

 

Garage.
TL.

You're doin' it right man, can't wait for the pics, what are you doing with those BBS wheels?

 

I can't believe how many people don't know what a fender roller is.

 

Wow, I've never seen one of those-pretty cool stuff.

 

clean WDP!

im with everyone else, never seen a fender roller thought it was done another way..haha..nice to know

 

HAHA Awesome.. I can't beleive it either, Most people just use a Bat LOL

This is the VIP Legit way to do it!



and I'll be selling the BBS's soon.

 

great pics... I bought a fender roller myself when my wheels came..i got it off tirerack.. i wanted to take pics of the process but i did it by myself and didnt feel like stopping to take pics wish i would have ...lol

 

Detailed once I was done..

 

What a damn sexy TL you got there man.

 

clean detail man, what size pad is that? it looks huge

 

absolutely beautiful TL! one suggestion...get rid of the red sidemarkers and throw on smoked ones....

 

Where did you get that Acura banner hanging in your garage? I want

 

that is a nice TL man

 

The Acura banner in the garage is sick haha

Nice work on the fender rolling. I am happy with my rears but my fronts are hella flared out, thinkin about redooing them.

 

That TL looks sexy!!

+3 on the Acura banner lol seriously cool!

 

Love the pictures of the roller machine. Love the car and the garage. Tire rack sells a roller just like that one if anyone is interested. I would still leave this up to the guys who know what they are doing like the OP. If you do go to far, it's going to cost a lot to fix that mistake!

 

Thanks man, its a 10" Pad I think.

Eh Smoked w/ Base Tails? Ehhh

EBay baby! Its a Flag I think.

 

Looks good man!! I had someone roll my fenders since I didnt want to try it myself.. had bad bad experiences trying to do it myself because i didnt have a heat gun.. but the guy that did it said the TL was one of the hardest he has done because of how thick that lip is.. and hes done ALL kinds of cars.. he said the only other car that was almost as hard was a new gen bmw..

 

Good SHIT!!!

Come on... you can get the lip flatter than that...

The Acura Fender is like paper compared to a Lexus Fender... I no longer do lexus fenders cause of that... too much work for the $$$....

I'm glad that people are getting busy with their own cars... to the OP...

 

+1

Clean job btw

 

looks good. Are those wheels off an Evolution?

 

nice. i rolled my fenders using my hands

 

I found out lexus fenders are easier when you cut them off. NIce job. Love how the Evo MR BBS's look on your car...Oh yea you want fitment =D Here is a local haha.

 

So if i understand correctly, those are 18'' with about a 2 inch drop?

 

where did u get that tool to do it? and how much?

 

LOL i always wondered what you guys mean by fender rolling!! Now i know LOLOLOL!
