I rolled them long time ago but here is how i did it and im showing it here because there is a few people asking me how i did it.
i rolled them because the tires were really close to the fender and the fender was cutting my tires really bad. that little lip on the fender acts like sharp blade! the only 2 tools i used were a hammer and a heat gun. i used a heatgun to warm the paint and preventing it to crack. if you heat it too much bubbles will start appearing in the paint, if this happens immediately remove the heat gun and let if cool for a couple seconds and start hitting it with the hammer softly. everytime you hit it place your hand on the other side of the fender to absorb the hit of the hammer and protect your whole fender from bending. as you can see i cut a piece of the guard because the tire was hitting and making noises -------------------- |

Do you know this causes your fenders to be less strong in case of minor accidents? are they flimsy?
