Try to find someone locally who does it or you may have to rent the roller and do it yourself (get a heat gun). Normally people charge $45 per fender. A guy I know did mine for $50 for both.

You can do a search using 69TA for other LS1tech members who have rented my roller in the past.

Thanks for looking,

I have rolled the fenders on my daily driver with a heat gun and a rubber mallet.

I used a RUBBER MALLET and a pair of Channelocks and a pair of Vice Grips. Taped the fender with High Speed Racing Tape first.

Basically heat the fender one section at a time and use the rubber mallet to bang the lip up. It's pretty simple to do. Once you begin hitting the lip of the fender you can gauge how hard to hit it. Heating the fender keeps the paint from cracking. It can be done in about an hour.
