Default Shop for pulling/rolling fenders....

Hey everyone. I'm in the Boca Raton area and need to find a shop that can pull and roll my rear fenders. Some new rims might be on the way so I need some modifications under there.

Also any idea on an approx. price range? thanks everyone.

How much work do you need done? You can roll the lip or cut it off as mentioned. A pull will require some skill. You could do it yourself though, buy a fender roller from Eastwood, heat up the metal to prevent paint flaking and pull away.

Well I'm workin on getting some new rims which are 19x10 in the rear. Everyone has told me that rolling the fenders wouldn't be enough but to pull them woud be best. Anyone have any experience, or know of a shop in South Florida? Thanks Wringo for the PM. they are on the list but somehting closer would be great!

Its not just the width of the rear rim its the offset also. I am running 20x10.5 in the rear no running at all I could probally go out to 20x11 but I got a good offset. So whats your offset and we can get a better idea

My offset in the rear is going to be a +57 I believe.

did you test fit the rims yet? because if they fit then i dont think you need any fender rolling at all. That offset is so high that its super duper conservative if it fits.
