Here's the Low Down on fender rolling and shaving. Roll the front & Shave the rear.

I did this on my wifes IS, but the same process works on the GS.

What tool did you use to roll the front fenders?

I am not giving a step-by-step DIY here, but just the general process description.

You can use a baseball bat by jacking up the car so that there is just enough gap to place the bat between the fender and the tire. Just roll the bat against the tire and the inner fender lip and apply some pressure to bend the metal back. Do it gradually or heat up the paint with a heat gun to prevent paint cracking. As always: do so at your own risk.
