Default Any shop in SAC for clear bra & fender roll/shave?

Hey guys, im upgrading my Z to an 08 and want to put on a clear bra on the bumper/hood/headlights. I want to know of some good reputable shops in sac that can do this. I prefer the 3M for the clear bra.

Also I would need to roll/shave my fenders as I have +22 offset wheels that I would be installing. Any good shop that does this without cracking the paint etc?

Please let me know, thanks in advance!

I have +22 all around with 275's and no fender roll, no rubbing either. My car is stock height and this is without camber arms.
Camber arms front/rear went on this week and I'm getting an alignment tomorrow but I'm not doing it because of clearance.

really? On my 2006 Z the tire guys recommended me rolling the fenders. I had this done in L.A. when I was there to pick up a few things along with my Volk LE37's. They shaved the rear fenders and rolled the front ones. I do have mines dropped on TEIN Mono Flex coilovers. I dont have it dropped all the way though. You think I should put my wheels (+22 offset) with Tein coilovers in 2008 Z and see if it rubs? hmm....

My understanding is that if you're dropped with stock camber settings, then they might rub if you run 265+ tires up front. Mine didn't run because of the height, plus the wheel cambers quiet a bit with suspension travel, so the more it compresses, the more it gets pulled in.
If you have the stock wheels as well, why don't you just fit the aftermarket ones on and see?

hahahaha damn some of you guys have reading issues....its definitely +22 OFFSET.
I clearly stated "Also I would need to roll/shave my fenders as I have +22 offset wheels that I would be installing. Any good shop that does this without cracking the paint etc?"

Did some of you missed reading the word OFFSET? ...LOL

I am not getting angry at anyone here, just realizing how a lot of people don't read the all posts/full thread before posting a useless post. (maybe to increase post count so no one will call them n00bs?)

I have mentioned "+22 offset" not once but a few times on this thread. I don't need to post full specs of my wheels as that was irrelevant to what I was asking.

Anyways no need to to make this thread longer as the answer I was looking for was provided by generous Control350Z.

Eh i dont really care about post count...

When i got my fenders rolled the paint did crack and fall off underneath where the lip was rolled. you cant tell from outside. The factory paint is not as pliable as other might be. I had mine done at Body Mechanics Frame Body Shop‎ on gold river
