Help!! I need a bat!!!

Hey

I was hoping to find someone that has a bat and the knowhow to help me roll my rear lips.

I just got my H&Rs and they are rubbing a bit on the rear.

Thnks Andre

WOOT!!! Another fellow H&R member!!! How does your car handle now Andre? And what did you do with the Toms? As for rollin your fenders, what offset do you have on your rims? If you want to roll them, you need a professional to do it, otherwise, you could get paint cracks up the side of your PR5, which would not be cool. My uncle is good @ this stuff, but he's in Vancouver...you could call Impressionz or Speedtech, and I'm sure they will be able to help you...DON'T ATTEMPT THIS YOURSELF

Your rims are the wrong offset man. As Justin says..get it done professionally. Don't wanna roll too much to crack the paint.

If I don't care about cracking the paint because I'm re-painting the car, how would I go about doing this?

Get a baseball bat. Metal or wood. Stick it in between the wheel gap. Put your car in neutral and roll your car back and forth until you see the results. Do one fender at a time.

Sounds a little to high-tech for me...

In doing this, should I be trying to bend the whole fender out or just bend the lip in?

Just bend the lip in. The ideal bend is around 1-2 cm.
