great job Tony!

did you create the tool that you use to roll and pull the fenders?

do you recommend anybody in South Florida to do this job? Or when is your next vacation to Miami? LOL

Thanks dude, I use a hammer and dolly set i bought at a bodyshop supply place a few years ago, Its just a generic no name set. had to reshape a couple of the dollys, but it works great.

I use a few different tools, depends on the car and the fitment really. Regular Fender Rollers are commercially available now, as are hammer and dolly sets, i have a few other tools i've adapted over the years too

I actually plan to visit Florida at some time, i sold my old full custom VW Cabby to a guy out there, its never been seen again.

Hey Tony,

How much of a pull would you say would be needed to clear the rear fenders?



Also, any tips on pulling on a SC?

Well I just went to town on my LF fender (gonna do the other one tmrw) with a heat gun a rubber mallett and a piece of pipe ...I pulled them and rolled them alright. Aint exactly pretty but I got a 235s upfront now with an 18mm spacer and didnt have to raise the suspension up.

Coming to New England any time soon, Tony? I have a roller but I tend to crack paint when I do it. I want my e39 rolled flat but the paint is too nice for me to attempt lol.

whats up dude, always loved your e30,

just did an e39 for Stanceworks member this week, shaving the lip is always another option, its paint friendly as long as you dont get the panel too hot.

no plans to visit new england... might visit old england this year though, lol.

what exactly do you do with the fender liner? do you remove it entirely? or cut it back a bit i've always wondered that

[Tonys18t]

it depends on the car really,

most of the time the liner can be retained by relocating it

[booogs]

i'd like to get my rear fenders rolled and pulled. where are you located?

Its not the most professional way of doing it but it got the job done and the paint is still intact

[andro_badia]

Looks great!! Have thought of rolling my fenders on my e28, anything special to think about these cars?

[orau22]
