We don't roll in NorCal we shave.

Do a search for several threads in the GS section under shaved fender and see what we have been doing for 5 years.

Then come to EOS and look at cars to see how well it works compared to rolling.

Exact can do fender shaving.

You did not hear that statement on these forums did you?

Rust is not a problem if you paint the edge.

And weakness? You need to talk to a mechanical engineer who knows what he's talking about.

You should shave or trim the rears, the fronts it is best to do a combination of cutting and rolling, but beware of the risk of paint cracking or other warp damage.

add me to the "old" list. i shaved my fenders too, much easier and safer. the fenders on the gs especially the rears are very bad for rolling. paint can chip very easily
