What kind of shop do I have to go to in order to get my fenders rolled? Will any body shop have the tool? How much am I looking at? If it's too much I'll just buy the tool to do it.


And yes I know theres another thread right below this one about fender rolling, but if people would've responded to my question in there, I wouldn't have had to post this. This is kindof urgent as my new tires are getting sliced. I can't wait around for someone to maybe see my post in there.
 
Hmmmm, Any body shop should be able to do it. My suggestion would be to go to a scrap yard and pick up a used one, even if you have to paint it yourself, its alot less work.

Or, keep it on, and just hammer it from the back out as good as you can (slow and steady) until you get the contour of it somewhat back, then brake out the bondo glass and smooth it out.

The third option if its still repairable is to go buy a dent puller, basically you have to drill a hole into the fender and "pull" it out, then bondo. I just did this myself this weekend and turned out excellent. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.

Pick up a used what? theres nothing wrong with my fenders, they're rubbing because of wider tires.

I dont trust my own work so i'd rather have it professionally done but I dont even know where to look.
 
I am on the site 'steel city stangs' and there is a local place (Rodehaver's I think?) that has the roller tool and will do each for $25 I believe.
I had my Mustangs done in OH by a body shop my family knows for $40.
