Default Good Seattle shop for rolling / shaving fenders?

Does anybody know a shop around Seattle that can do a good fender rolling or shaving? I want to find somebody that won't just say yes to the job then butcher it.

Thanks!

A bunch of people on EvolutionM.net when I was active on their forums with my evo had experience from Bel-Kirk Autobody (http://www.belkirkbodyshop.com/) and were very satisfied. You might want to give them a look.

Benchmark Motoring! The roll fenders on BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, Lambos, Ferraris and basically any good car you can think of. I'm sure they can do a good job.

Thanks! Benchmark didn't even cross my mind. I know they do excellent work on technology integration, but didn't know they do bodywork.

I don't know yet. As a matter of fact, I don't know if I need to mod the fenders yet until the SSR wheels come in

I just wanted to get a few good companies in my contacts in case I do need to shave / roll.

make sure when you get your fenders rolled you get those tabs that stick out. those are the main killers. im gonna be running out to carnutz when my wheels come in next month, ive only seen good things from them and i want a reliable shop when it comes to pulling my fenders. however, if yogi says benchmarks good, that means something

No problem, glad I could help in some way. Yea the work is pretty unique, and they did my audio work and some fabrication on the project car.

Oh those are a bummer!!! The tabs are ridiculous, make sure you get them out or else when your roll your fenders you'll have nipples popping out of your fenders lol.....

Hahaha James, your far too kind!

Very nice choice mugenh! I have looked into those wheels before. Those will look good on your car. Can't wait to see them on your ride.

Hey guys, i need help. I bought new tires 275/30/20 Continental DWS and now I'm rubbing the rear fender. I was on 275/30/20 recently and they didn't rub.

So my question is, where and how much should i expect to pay for a 3-5mm shave on my rear fender lips? I'm in Renton.
