Cost anyone?THX

 

it will cost you as much as the cheapest baseball bat you can find :P

 

Have you personally done yours and please give instructions,thx.

 

Not my P-Car, but my past VW's yes.
Just need to be Really Paitent.
Search on Youtube or Browse VWVortex, lots of good Advise on how to Roll Fenders with a Base Ball Bat.

 

I've rolled ~1200 cars over a near 5 years of owning a performance shop. I used to charge $90-$120 for a pair of Porsche rear fenders depending on model and paint quality. The rear fenders should be worked almost perfectly flat underneath and give you an extra 1/2" or so of clearance. Just be sure whoever is doing the job has the proper tools and hopefully has some experience. Also most standard fender rollers can not accept the 5x130 bolt patterns of our cars and like my own rollers will need to be modified to work.

 

I did my fenders on an 88 VW GLI back when I was in my early 20's. Basically just jacked the car up, angled a heavy metal pole between the outside edge of the tire and inner edge of the fender well and slowly released the jack to bring the weight of the car down on the pole. Repeat in a few locations around the fender, then roll the bar around the tire with some of the weight of the car on it.

Not so sure I would be brave enough to re-attempt it on the P-Car now that I am slightly older and "wiser" but it worked out fine on the VW. If you do decide to attempt it, just take your time and do everything slowly and in tiny increments... You have to be especially careful about cracking the paint, and deforming the fender so I can't stress enough do some reseach and take your time if you decide to give it a go.

I have heard of people using 1 1/2 or 2 inch pvc and baseball bats, but I had a 2 inch metal pipe handy so it worked at the time.

 

search craig's list in the at parts section for fender rollers ( Eastwood)... I live in Austin and there are 2 guys that rent them out for $50 per day.... I've seen a guy do the same in Houston and San Antonio...

 

i had the rear fenders rolled in my 350z and it was $75. please use a fender rolling tool and not a baseball bat!

 

You can buy the roller for 150-200 ish , I did mine my self, but they were already cut , a little heat to soften the paint , and I wrapped up a bat with a towel slowly went back and forth , worked just fine , but I'm a DIY kinda guy

 

doesnt have to be a bat. haaha, LOL. just take your time on it. use a hammer to smooth it out after, then touch up paint to prevent rust.

 

I rented tools from this source:

I did it 6+ years ago before they had the adaptor for the Porsche bolt pattern but made it work. It was relatively easy. If you are going to do it yourself do it right and rent the tools. For $65 including the Porsche adaptor it is well worth it.
