    I know a good shop that can repaint your fenders...afterwards...You'll know what I mean...Make sure u got a heated space before u do it.

    your paint will be fine (although no guarantee - there are too many variables). generally speaking, fender rolling won't damage the paint if done correctly with the proper amount of heat. when we did my 240sx the paint was fine. that was a roll with a pull. pulling is where you can run into body/paint issues but rolling is pretty tame (the wrx rears look kind of tricky to roll though)

    When you get it heated then rolled, will it cool down quickly?

    all you do is apply heat to the paint while rolling (with a heatgun) to keep the paint soft so it doesn't crack. can't use too much heat though or you'll burn the paint
