Default D.I.Y Fender Rolling

Fender rolling is very easy... just very time consuming. I beg you to take your time and do it right and everything with be A OK. First you'll need a fender roller and a heat gun



Take off your wheels and attached the roller to your hub and tighten her down.




Start by heating up the inner fenders until warm to the touch. It will take a couple minutes of heating before you start your rolling.



Then start with the wheel almost flat and make a couple of sweeps back and forth. You'll see the fender start to curve inward. Heat up the fender and repeat the process. As you do this start angling the roller upwards more and more to tuck in the lip.






Take your time and do it right... here is a video clip or two






Here is the final result!


Before...


After...
