Default Quarter panel lip rolling?????

I've got Fikse 17x 11.5" FM5 Wheels on the back (just installed) they tucked in beautifully exactly the correct offset! I have to bang and repaint/rustproof a little of the inner wheel well really no big deal, but now I'm not sure on how to roll the inner fender/quarter lip, Heat gunn and bend? Rent roller? Have body shop cut/roll lip and paint/match both quarters if neccessary? How do you guys do this procedure????

Eastwood fender roller and a heat gun, works like a charm. I rented the one I used from someone here on the board.

I can't remember who it was, it was only like $50 to rent but I had to put down like a $200 deposit. It took like half and hour to do both and I'm very happy with the results. We'll see how much clearance it gave me now, my TTII's just showed up today and they're 17x11's in the back
