Fender rolling in SE Michigan?

I called what I believe to be the only custom shop in my area and they want to cut, rather than roll my fenders. I don't like this idea. I've done it myself in the past, but I can't find a tool to rent anywhere and I don't want to buy one. Help?

Do not let anyone cut/trim your fenders. It's not necessary with the set up you want to run, Dave. They obviously don't know what the heck they're doing. Find someone who can use an Eastwood Roller (most widely use professional roller). I'll ask around and let you know if I find a good shop.

Before I move I had SLC do a suspension install on my Mazdaspeed 3. They might be able to assist you. Hope they weren't the shop that wanted to cut...

That's exactly who I called! I told them there's no way they're cutting my fenders. I also tried VR Performance in Sterling Heights, but they don't answer the phone. I've used an Eastwood roller several times before, and would love to do it myself, I just can't get my hands on one.

I'm sure steet legal would do a good job at what they recommended, but I agree, i wouldn't let them cut either.

Try Autometric Utica, i'll PM you a name to use when you call.
