i've heard some bad stuff about 786.
in 2g, its better to cut instead of rolling. u'll have to cut the rear part plus the bumper bracket/tab and lip.

i cut my own fenders, its very easy if u have a stable hand not afraid of sparks.
u'll need an air grinder.

When I had my civic i got it done at Cartronix on highway 6, over the phone they gave a price but when i showed up they did for cheaper than they had quoted me. You can try doing that see how it works out for you

You will have to cut them and the bumper bracket. rolling wont help.

that's normal Cuong . rolling fender in front wont really solve the turning issue because u'll rub in the back side anyways. u can just keep drivinglike that. ur tires will automatically roll the front fenders where needed.

i thought u were talking about ur rears rubbing.

I'll trim your fenders for 40. PM me if you're interested. I recently installed some 15mm spacers and I had to cut mines. I have all the tools.
