if you are close to southern jersey you could come to one of our club meets and we could help you do it. you would have to pay a tool usage fee, we have a fender rolling tool, just FYI.

how waste money? enough guys have the freaking tool. how much does a bat cost? how much does a heat gun (still needed even with a bat) cost?

don't be stupid, do it right.

do shops keep raising the price? they don't even reimburse you if they mess it up and crack your paint! that is usurious. you can rent the tool cheap.

we use a heat gun, a infrared thermometer and the fender rolling tool.

I am going to have to roll my rears I think.

Most Shops have always charged those prices b/c they pass it off as "body work".
