Easy piecey lemon squeezy... Find somebody who rolls fenders. Don't expect it to look that good though. Because no matter how good the guy is, the paint cracking or fender baconing is beyond his control. So, that pic of yyour example, is an SC that's been repainted after all the body work.

1. Go to home depot or Harbor Freight
2. Buy Heat Gun and rubber mallet
3. Heat and start pounding
Funny enough, my fenders were rolled by the previous owner many years ago. Then last year I decided to
replace one of the front fenders due to a dent. Well I had it painted and decided to mount my 19" wheels.
Holy rub batman, I forgot that I didn't roll that one before driving it from the tire shop. So I got home, went
through my step 1-3 above, and it turned out better than the other three corners. Not to mention it's the only
corner that isn't rusting or peeling. So, take your time and have it done or visit a body shop that can help.
