I need my fenders rolled by a good shop on e60 545i in Seattle area
Anyone know a good shop that can do that for me? i heard if you do it wrong then your paint will crack and chip. I live in Seattle/Tacoma area. Also i don't want individuals to do it because i need some responsibility if they screw up. Anyone did it and how much was it?
Btw my car is on 255/35/20 and 285/30/20 wheels so it rubs if i hit a pothole. If i have people in the back it gets bad even on slightly uneven road.

You can buy your own roller from eastwood and do it yourself. I would recommend learning how to be handy. you will learn a lot in life being that way rather than being dependent.
here's a tip: make sure you get all the caulk out of the inner fender lip (if there is any on an E60) or the rolling will not be even. Perhaps you should post up the width of the rear rim because a 285 tire may be excessive unless you have a rim that will not take a 275 stretched.

thanks but i think ill leave this job to the professionals. I read on other forums that your paint might chip or crack if its not done properly. I found someone that did the whole car for 150.

Haven't seen any modern cars paint chip, my 07 335 did fine, rent the tool, buy a heat gun. Is horsepower freaks in Seattle? They could do it.

To each his own idea. I find my work to be more professional than any "professionals" these days even though I've never done the specific task at hand. From pulling engines to building houses. I'm not afraid to try. That's what makes the difference. I've always been successful in my endeavors.
