Fender rolling in/around Madison?

I need to have my rear fenders rolled, but haven't had any luck locating somewhere that does it. Called a couple body shops and they said it's not something they do. One suggested bringing the car in to them and they would look and see what they could come up with but they don't have an actual fender roller there. Anyone know a place that does fender rolling?

I've seen this ad in Chicago CL for fender rolling if that isn't too far for you to drive:
http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/wto/5829044101.html

Eastwood sells this tool for $90 if you are a DIY type person or maybe you could make a deal with a local body shop - buy them the tool and they do it for you!

Hope this helps.

Have you tried Kelly Moss?

You know, I hadn't thought of Kelly Moss but that's not a bad place to check now that you mention it.

I called Kelly Moss and they do fender rolling, they said 1 hour of labor for the 2 rear fenders.

Also the shop that works on my car, Coachworx, gave me the number for this friend of theirs whose dad runs a shop in Oregon and this guy sets up drift cars apparently, he comes to people's houses with heat guns and a fender roller and does it on the spot. I need to talk to him and see what he'd charge.

This gentleman is my friend. He is very good at what he does. I work with him for a living and he always go up and beyond his normally duties here at the building. I'd definitely give him a call

I'd rather not drive ~2.5 hours to Chicago for this if I can avoid it. I talked to the guy referred by my mechanic, I'm probably going with him. Has done lots of BMWs and does it on the cheap. He does house calls but I don't have the right jack stands for my car at the moment, so I'm going to his shop.

Skunkspeed shop in Middleton, WI can role fenders. He rolled my fenders for my last car. He does a lot of stanced cars. Just google him.

So this guy Mark who I got referred to by my mechanic, turns out he does the fender rolling for Skunks. He also does it on his own making house calls and out of his dad's shop Express Automotive in Oregon. He did a good job and cheap.
