Default rolled my rear fenders

after searching around two weeks for a fender roller to rent locally, i was unable to find one. so i decided to buy one. now i'm going to rent out because most people only need to use it once. i would prefer local pick up because that will save on shipping and we can handle the money directly instead of getting charged by paypal. but i'm willing to ship at your expense.

$40 for one week plus $200 deposit (will be returned once i get the roller back).
the heat gun would be optional, free of charge but you pay the shipping.

here are some pics of my s2000 rolled fenders.

You rolled your 1/4 panel not fenders. Fender are at the front.

No matter, looks like you got the extra room needed

to me, anything that go over the wheels to fend off road debris are fenders no matter how it's attached the car.

the right term for cars is "quarter panel" except for t-buckets... why, cuz its actually welded..

front are bolted on, therefore, its called "fender"...

good example: motorcycles / chopper bikes ...

now you guys know... mkthnxbye

current running 17x8 +43 with 245/40 in the rear. it wasn't really rubbing because i had megan racing coilovers and it wasn't drop very low but i could see that if i would have drop it any lower, it would have rubbed. after rolling the fenders (aka quarter panels) i dropped it another 1/2" and no rubbing.

no problem rubbing in the front. 17x7 +45 with 215/45.

Dude I'm dumped on 235 front and 255 rears with +45s no problem. Must be because my AP2 is superior.
