Hey, This is my first time posting on this thread. I'm not new to the forum but I usually never post anything, thought I should be a little more active. I have an 06 magnetic black 350z roadster. I live in Elk Grove, I see quite a few Zs out here, but they tend to be extreeeemly old men or a woman, doubt I've seen anyone of you guys yet. I'll post a pic of my Z once i figure out how lol...
Its the same concept as a fender roller, you dont BEAT the fender with the bat or jack handle lol...
U wedge it in between the wheel and the fender lip and as you heat with the heat gun you start rolling it..lol
Im sure renting a tool would be easier however...Im just impatient and want to get things done asap sometimes lol...i still have to roll my fenders actually...blah...still waiting to buy my RPF1's tho so ill wait
Lol im kinda impatient also. The more I think about it the more I think that I might try using my jack handle LOL. I need them pretty flat though. Anybody know if this is possible while keeping paint in tact?? Thanks guys

haha welcome. yeah theres a bunch of us around, hidden in the giant group of older men and women that arent enthusiasts :P
as for posting images, host it on a site like flickr.com or photobucket, facebook even, then right click and copy the image address. then come to post here, type [ img ] then click paste here, then [ /img ] and it'll pop up. just make sure its not a HUGE photo hahaha. and also the img codes, dont put spaces on em, just bracket it all together. if you click "Quote" on the post i made just above with the photo, it will show you how the code looks
he showed up to the bbq i had at the lake this weekend.
LMAO wth?!?! He's got two boost gauges in there, and actually bothered to hook the one on the side of the real gauge cluster into the power so it lit up at night. Of course there is no indication of any kind of turbo under the hood though. Maybe moving the stickers from the outside of the car to under the hood creates a turbo if it's a Honda?

The key is to make sure you warm it up really good with a proper heat gun. In essence your making not only the PAINT malleable but the METAL as well...as long as you take your time you should be able to do just as good as a fender roller.
The paint can crack and will get a little chipped up on the inner part of the well, you cant really avoid that regardless of what route you take (ie bat or roller). You cant see it from the outside tho so who cares...
its better to use a wooden bat too instead of anything metal just cause the wood is soft and gives more than fender.
you were at the tnt meet the other weekend right? i think your vert is the only one i've ever liked.
Yeah I was there, david from tnt told me to go. Thanks everyone for the compliments. I dont know why but most roadster owners make their Zs so ugly with big chrome rims with like +100 offset or just crazy body kitted up. I try to be different. I'm about done modding my Z and plan to get a ruckus, these gas prices are destroying my paychecks.
