Just do it yourself… use a razor blade to “cut” a line in the paint near the edge of the fender lip. This will prevent your paint from cracking/flaking beyond the lip and up your fender, etc.

Get a baseball bat and a fat guy or several skinny guys to sit on the deck lid. Roll the bat. This will help get the lip started… once this is done, get a hammer and lightly tap, in small sections, the rest of the lip up. Go slow and in small sections. If you try to go buck wild you’ll leave dimple marks on the outside fender.

Not hard. Take your time and have some pleasure in knowing you did it yourself
