like the type you bolt to the hub to roller the inner fender? I heard Hubcap Heaven will rent one, but i dunno. options are good i guess and free is best

12/8/2005 11:35:11 AM

i was real close to using a baseball bat.

but if you get that roller hook me up can you? how much is the rental? ill go in halves if its no too bad

12/8/2005 11:56:01 AM

yeah, if you're careful a bat will work nicely. that's how i did the rear of my duster.

12/8/2005 12:10:12 PM

some old guy up the rd from me used a 5lb sledge a few years ago on the side of his nissan...i was wondering what the fuck he was doin, now it looks like a piece of aluminum foil that had been crumpled up and then unballed...i guess he thought it would hammer out or something

12/8/2005 12:18:23 PM

boanest, ok if i rent one we can share. it probably wont be till jan-feb though although i guess it doesnt matter. i need to find a heat gun also

12/8/2005 1:59:14 PM

are you rolling the fenders on the M? did you get new wheels already?

12/8/2005 3:42:33 PM

baseball bat/broom handle

12/8/2005 3:49:58 PM

ive seen some really good results from a baseball bat

12/8/2005 4:06:42 PM

baseball bat works, but its gotta be done pretty damn good or youll see cracks in the paint. i dont mind that toooo much, but if i can find a roller thatll do the job.

12/8/2005 4:13:46 PM

jared, no new wheels, but i'll be stuffing some 255s in there for autox

well i might be getting some new wheels, i dunno. i have two sets now, oem staggared (7.5,8.5) and a set of cheap 17x8"s. i should really go w/ 8.5s w/ 255s so i might try to find two beat up oem 8.5s and have a set of four 17x8.5"s. i have a lot of planning to do for next season

oh and i want the machine. it cant be much to rent, and this way you can take your time and slowwwlly increase the pressure/bend

12/8/2005 4:41:58 PM

hell i just gotta bend the inner lip in. i got 225 track tires and they rub around corners.

so its either $1000 suspension, or minimize perhaps eliminate it with a fender roller

12/8/2005 4:46:27 PM

^thats weak, dude.

12/8/2005 4:48:23 PM

i like to keep my car stock. thats how we roll.

there aint no need for upgraded suspension. i prolly wont get anything for it anytime soon. or ever

12/8/2005 4:49:35 PM

12/8/2005 7:27:03 PM

actually Dan, when you decide to do this just let me know and I'll throw in

12/29/2005 2:50:24 PM

i plan on buying a heat gun before then.

i also want to roll the fenders on my mk1 jetta after i get it...

12/29/2005 3:05:47 PM

ok sounds good

12/29/2005 3:56:45 PM

SOOOOOONNNN

1/3/2006 9:32:32 PM

anyone else? beethead will bring the heatgun. who wants to be the guinea pig?

1/4/2006 11:15:33 AM

well... i will have a heatgun by then, but the jetta wont be running. it will be in storage somewhere.. we can use it as the guinea pig (maybe the night before) b/c it will be refinished anyway.

1/4/2006 11:59:26 AM

We can use my Maxima as a guinni pig if every one wants.

1/4/2006 12:15:54 PM

i mean, if we have it the night before, we can do it on the jetta.. i may be able to trailer it to where ever we're doing the rolling. it will probably be in a storage unit.

its just a shell right now, and hopefully we can use the fender roller to fix a little damage (dent) on one of the rear fenders (over the wheelwell)

and i am 100% sure it will be re-painted. so, really, i dont care at all about the paint cracking/peeling.

1/4/2006 1:40:49 PM

I'm fine with any weekend.

1/4/2006 7:17:12 PM

might also want a heat gun to soften up the paint

1/4/2006 10:47:07 PM

did you know the dell dude got busted for pot?

1/5/2006 12:30:57 AM

the atruim is on fire, and 12 miners found alive!

1/5/2006 3:25:41 AM

ok i have the roller rented for the weekend of the 21st and 22nd. So it'll be one of those days.

If you can, bring a jack and stands and your own wheel removal tools. that should make things faster.

$10 a car

1/9/2006 9:54:02 AM

where is this going on?

1/9/2006 10:14:04 AM

well, we're moving from our old house w/ no garage but a long single wide driveway to our new house w/ a 2 car garage, but unusable-for-jacking driveway the weekend before.. so we can use either house. both are in Cary

at the moment i'm thinking the old house will be best weather permitting. i'll PM ppl when it gets a little closer.

1/9/2006 10:52:27 AM

how long does it take? i think the civic would look hot with rolled fenders.

1/9/2006 11:02:39 AM

you cant see the rolling unless you look up under the fender.. it just smooshes the two layers of fender metal together, inside against the outside. the time consuming part will be jacking and taking off wheels. i dont think the rolling should take tooo long.
