question, how much can the fender be rolled out safely...? Obviously I would guess it would not be comparable to an GTS if I have an S4...but just curious...

Any photos...?

Default Bat

I have a fender roller you can use if the 928 OC one is tied up. Experimented with both the roller and then the bat on a totaled 79. We feel that the bat actually worked better.02 T

Ok, so I rolled the fenders tonight with a bat as per Tony77's coaxing and it turned out Great! I must say I was nervous as hell, however it ended up being quite easy. No paint cracking (that im aware of as car is wrapped) and no duck lip. I have 18 x 11 wheels, with 295-30-18 tires and now I have absolutely no rubbing.

Thank You Tony for the pep talk on the phone earlier, and Thanks to everyone who chimed in.

Ill take some tomorrow Otis, but to be honest from the outside looking on you dont see much really. Which is what you want, if you see it, its usually because it has a duck lip effect which you definitely dont want Imho.
