Does anyone know where I can have my rear fenders rolled in the Chicago, IL area? I really don't want to try it my self for fear of chipping or cracking the paint. 
Thanks, Jim

What is fender rolling?
Several ways to do it, but the best is using a spacing tool with a rubber roller that gets mounted to the wheel hub.
The arches (fenders) get warmed up before to avoid the paint from cracking

Effectively flattening the lip within your rear arches to give a little more space for larger wheels without catching.
