Post Does the GT2 come with rolled fenders from factory?

I was at a dealership this morning and the owner's GT2 was parked in front of it.
I was looking at how low the car sits and was wondering if any rubbing occurs. Upon examining the car, I noticed that the fenders on this beast were rolled (both front and rear fenders!!). The salesperson assured me that no mods were done to this car other than the stonechip protection film...He says fenders come like that from factory on the GT2.
Does anyone know if this is true?? (Can a GT2 owner check whether their fenders are rolled or not??)

GT2 fenders are rolled at the factory.

I purchased a set of GT2 wheels for my 996TT and when I put one on the rear, it looked like it would rub and I returned them. Now I know how they work on the GT2. Glad I didn't try to drive my car.

I'm a bit of a <img border="0" alt="[ouch]" title="" src="graemlins/c.gif" /> Could someone post pictures of "rolled" versus "not rolled" fenders

FWIW-

I'm running GT2 wheelset, 5mm PAG spacers and H&R coilovers (at "highest" setting, which is about same as factory GT2), without any problem on a TT. No fender rolling done.

Yes, but is there a factory 'flame' option?

How wide are the stock GT2 wheels? I have 11.5"W rear wheels on my TT and the fenders are not rolled and there is NO rubbing at all!
