Default How much should I pay to roll fenders?

Just what the title says, I just lowered my car and I am getting my new wheels in about 2 weeks and I have pretty aggressive offsets. I dont want to get ripped off, but whats a good average to roll the fronts and rears?

About $1,000 for both the front and rears.

$100 for the front and $100 for the rear - so $200 total. A lot of places won't ensure their work from paint chips. However, if they use a heat gun, the chances of paint chipping is minimal to none.

impossible question to answer. Your best bet would be to go to your local forum and just ask for a recommendation. I had a performance shop roll my 350Z rear fenders for $80 ($40/corner), and one side ended up cracking a bit. I had a different shop (does a lot of drift cars) roll my 300ZX's rear fenders for $20, and it's perfection.

The fronts are already rolled...do you mean pulled? You can BUY a fender roller for about $200. Rent it out to people and make your money back in no time.

I figured $200.00 would be about the max. I am going to check around, but its one of those things where its not the smartest to go into a shop blind. Most have done it, and going by your examples I can go in there and bargain a bit more to make sure I dont get raped haha. Thanx guys, I will start a thread with pics of my wheels coming soon and my setup as it stands.

there isn't anything scientific to rolling your fenders; it's more a matter of how much time someone will take to ensure the paint doesn't crack. Good luck and post pics when you are no longer rubbing

I roll fenders and my charging price is $35 per fender.
If the person wants a flare/pull job I charge a lil more.
