WTF !!! That's insane!! How did it pull out like that? WOW never ever seen it do that with a fender roller.
BTW, you forgot to list "beat it with a bat" on the poll. i used my baseball bat to "roll" my fenders haha. It works and it was free well cost 19 dollars for a baseball bat

okay, i'm glad i'm not the only one experiencing this. those little holes are a killer. i've tried my best to minimized the ripple but you can still see/feel it. man, what a pain. i may try to take a hammer to that area later on but for now, at least the tires don't rub. i'm glad i'm not a "show car" kind of guy...
I bought the Eastwood Roller, So far I have rolled my fronts, I have yet to do the rear. The front went very well; I used the heat gun as recommended and didn’t crack the paint at all! The only place I was not 100% satisfied with is where the square holes that hold the rock guard on are. The fender lip doesn’t seem to roll quite as well there. All in all I am very pleased with it! Once my wheels arrive next week I hope I have made adequate clearance for them. I will roll the rear this weekend and report back the results. I started with the front because #1 you can unbolt and replace the front fenders and #2 they seemed like they would be the greatest challenge. As of right now I say Roll! No question about it.

I used a body mallet and it came out as nice as my honda which i used a fender roller on. You have to be careful and not beat it to hard and take your time. Heat gun at 750 or so help to going back and forth between the mallet and keeping it warm with the gun. Don't go over 750 or the paint will start to sizzle and bubble...
