Default whos got rolled/shaved front fenders?

does anyone here has rolled or shaved front fenders?i was wondering if the fender gets flimsy.does it flex easily?im contemplating if i should do mines so i could add a spacer to make my wheels more flush.thanks.

I had mine rolled, it's not flimsy at all. Since your rolling them it actually folds upwards and becomes more rigid.

Here's a few pics of my old set-up

Before the fender roll






After the fender roll, you can see it gave me much more clearance
