I went to Tim, and forgot the guys name there. but he actually cut it. very smooth job. rolling may cause a crack it paint.

rolling the fenders will never crack the paint as long as you know what you're doing... (heat gun to heat up the paint so it will flex) I have done over 15 fender rolls and haven't cracked the paint on any of them.

alright, well, i dont have a fender roller, i do my fender rolls with a heat gun and a wooden dowel. So if the fenders are decently close to the tire, i can definitely roll them. I do the rears on Z's and G's for $60, but if you need all 4 corners i'll do them for $100. No cracked paint either

If you dont have anybody you trust to mount your wheels and tires without scratching them, head on down to Discount Tire in Poway. I work there and have been busting tires for about 5 years now, i work on all the expensive and classic cars that come into my work. Just did a restored 57 chevy bel-air the other day with some new 15" classic and mickey tompson rubber. and i can roll your fenders right after mounting the wheels/tires.
