When I get to shaving my rear i'll make a diy, it seems like alot of people are asking about this lately and most people won't go to the carbongs thread.

Don't know why they wouldn't, seems like a crazy rush of 100 new kids in the past 8 months that all ask the same questions as someone else did 2 days prior..

Carbongs thread was pretty good and is all you really need.. The belt sander is one way, I just used my trusty angle with a 3" 3m 24 works like a champ..

exactly, i used carbongs diy to shave mines about a month ago. youngsters don't like reading. bought a dremel from autozone for $20 and a couple packs of reinforced cutoff wheels from lowes.

Unbelievable amount of info out there if they look for it!

I used an angle grinder on the GS as well, have used a belt sander on previous cars, both methods will get the job done.

Tried to get a pic of the dimples but it didn't come out great I will try and get a better one today.... But just a thought if cut the lip on the fender after it was rolled and roll again would it even out?

Look I unerstand this info is out there and I did my searching... But when you have a shop guy telling you that he could get it right for ya you kinda put your faith in them... I use the search button!!! First thing I told him was to shave them and he said he could get it perfect with the roller. What would you do?? Now instead of telling me over and over I should have searched first how about trying to give me a solution to the problem... I am on this site almost everyday learning things about the gs that I had no idea about... Now all I am looking for is a little help to fix a problem... If you don't know how to fix it then don't post. Thanks

I for one was not commenting on your situation, it was a generalization not aimed at your posting. You weren't asking how to do it, you are asking about a specific problem that you had, I think that is definitely acceptable. Pictures will help a ton.

I don't believe the other guys were directing anything towards you either.

But please still post up some pics of the damage..

Battle Version makes rear upper control arms now

And it probably doesn't matter to the OP now, but for future reference to anyone else who might have this question, if you roll/pull more once the dimples start forming, it will most likely get worse :/. Only way to is to do body work to get the fender smooth again.

If I had a penny for every botched fender roll job...

I always tell people, shave shave shave on these cars! It's such a clean easy procedure.

how Do You Pull The Rear? Is Pulling The Same As Rolling The Rear?
After You Shave The Rear What Do You Use To Protect/Cover The Bare Metal?

shaving...I used my buddy's air cutter as it is smaller and more accurate. But my electric grinder ( more bulky) will cut through it faster.
