| Shop for Fender Rolling
Who's a good and affordable shop to go to for some fender rolling? Need to get the rears rolled to make way for some aftermarket wheels. High stock offset FTL.

i am in the market for rolling too. Got a quote for $500 including repaint the fender, as the body shop said the area may crack after rolling.
maybe we can get a group rate?

i'd rather a shop just do it well and not crack the paint....did they say they would use a heat gun?

no they use a bat, and the only shop that uses a machine is keeps lab. Even they use a machine, there's a chance that the paint will crack.
Anyway keeps lab charges about $90 per fender....not sure about their quality

Keep is an awesome place--they're my preferred mechanic (When I'm not rockin' the loser cruiser) and they did Orgasm_Donor's fenders--and did a bang up job.

The paint did crack a tiny bit on the underside but I just spread on a little primer to protect the metal. You can't see it from the outside.

There's a guy I know who just bought one for himself... once he rolls his, he's planning on renting it out to people. He was thinking of $300 deposit and $100 for the rental of the roller and heat gun. This is for the pro Eastman roller tool, not some cheap piece of crap.
I'm going to rent it from him.. I'll let you know how it goes.

I have an Eastwood fender roller that I rent out to people in Victoria. Gotta come to the island to do it though. I've been renting it for years and it works great.

IF this tool bolts onto your rotor enjoy a warped rotor and f'd up suspension components.

Yes it mounts to your rotor by using your lug nuts and supplied washers. I've never had a problem with warped rotors or anything after rolling a half dozen of my own cars.
