LF: Someone to roll fenders this weekend
I need my front fenders rolled on my 03 GTi and my buddy with a mustang needs his rear fenders rolled.
We would both would prefer someone that has experience doing it. So there will be less of a chance of paint breaking/cracking.
I know there was a thread by highend talking about buying a fender roller, but we were looking to get it done this weekend. So if anyone is interested let me know so we can work something out. If there are more people that want to get in on this we can try to work something out also.

I've got a roller I'll rent you for $30 a day. I'll show you how to use it but I won't do it for you. Let me know if this is something you'd like to try.

What year Mustang, someone wanted me to do their 95-98 ish Mustang and I couldn't because most of the rear fender was plastic...and the part that wasn't would have been worthless to roll. I was told by a shop they usually have to cut those fenders for it to work.
Also, it is hard to screw it up w/ a heat gun and some patience. Figure out how the thing works before you start doing anything and go slow. Cars w/ flairs already...IE your GTi are a little trickier then, say, a 240, so make sure it is at the right angle and no part of it is hitting anything other then what you want moved. I practiced on an E30 and messed up the first one a little bit, luckily it didn't matter, but it is definitely different then a flat fendered car.
