    I need my rear fenders rolled to accommodate for my new wheels that's coming next week. If you can do it, please let me know. Thank you

    I know EXACTLY how u feel, I've got new springs and 18x9's just waitin to go on my car!
    I PMed Chimera Performance a few day ago about renting theirs http://mnsubaru.com/forums/showthread.php?24381-For-Rent-Fender-Roller&highlight=fender+rolling ...
    Still havent heard back yet.
    Also, I met a kid at a party last weekend, and I guess he has one to borrow/rent, but I drunkenly forgot to get his number, let alone really remember his name (I know right?), so im hoping friends of friends can get this together... I'll PM u if I hear from either!

    Thanks for all the replies.

    I pmed Chimera for availability this weekend and also give Jeff and MAP a call.

    Idget, If I were to rent it this weekend, would you be able to roll my rear fenders? Of course I would pay for the labor.

    Guys, I have a fender roller that you can rent from me. Just shoot me a PM.

    I don't think I am going to do any rolling for you. I just don't have the time right now. Too many projects.

    Jeff, MAP, Chimera, Zero are the people I found that can rent them out. Now I need a person to do it. Anyone up for it this weekend or next weekend?

    Get it really, really hot, just not too hot.

    I did the first side of mine very slow and warm, got cracks. Did the other side hot and fast, no cracks.

    Two people working on it at the same time is ideal. One person to heat the fender with the heat gun while the other person rolls the section that was just heated.

    Research the "how to"s on NASIOC (search for them) and the right videos on YouTube. Not the wrong vids where they use pipes or baseball bats.
