Default need help from anyone who has rolled their fenders

Not sure if I should post here or in Exterior since it has to do mostly with exterior but is caused by the wheel and tire combo.

I need to see if anyone who has rolled their fenders on their tC how you did it and whether or not you used the Eastwood Fender Roller? If u used the EFR can you let me know where you got it from? Would prefer not to buy but the few websites I have found that rent them seem alittle shady and just alittle skptical. Thanks. J.M.L

youll want to use a heat gun as well. you attatch the EFR to your wheel hub after you take off the wheel. adjust it correctly. then you heat up the paint along the fender line you want to roll until its rougly 130°F or so and roll the EFR along the fender where you heated it. The heating prevents the paint from cracking and peeling off as easily.

as for rental/buying one an EFR, i dunno of any places. sorry.
