Default Rolled Fenders question

So i just had my fenders rolled, front and rear, but am curious what people typically do as far as fender liners and where the fender turns into bumper seeing as you cant roll bumper... very hesitant to remove my front fender liners due to my air filter sitting right there with my raceland CAI but if anyone has suggestions or even better pictures of how they make stuff fit thatd be awesome

Most ppl will continue running with the fender liners until it melts itself away. Most of my friends did that and its fine now, it just takes some time. Shouldn't hurt the tire like the actual fender would.

That, or, you can remove the liner but i understand you stated you didn't want to do that.

I'm working on trying to keep my liners in, going with more negative camber, and putting a heat gun where need be to mold the liner away from tire. The most noticeable problem area is where the fender and bumper meet up, there's a big bump on the liner that covers the bolt location, put a heat gun to that area for a few minutes and push that in, and with a towel soaked in cold water cover the area soon in water so it'll hold shape. It may take a couple of tries before you figure the timing of everything. My passenger side liner is actually hanging down so until I get to that I'm not going lower.

I would try to leave your fender liners in if possible... Your engine bay stays cleaner and it helps prevent kicking up rocks from the road and damaging things that your fender liner protects.

The Front fenders dont necessarily need to be rolled. Just tuck the Wheel liner into the wheel well ledge part that should take care of it.

Rear Wheel wells need to be rolled. My homo is SO good at fender rolling he only used a Heat Gun & Mallet. Then you also need to shave the inside of the bumper that meets to the body.
