Thank you. On occasion, if I hit a really big dip, I get a very minor rub. I haven't had my fenders rolled yet, but I suspect that will alleviate the problem.

You might be rubbing on the fender liner rather than the fenders. I recently had my fenders rolled thinking it'll fix the rubbing issue, but it turned out to be the plastic liners instead.

Just have a closer inspection before wasting time and money on getting your fenders roll.

Great looking car esqyankee. My car is identical, minus the 20" HRE wheels.

Thanks for all the compliments! Truthfully, I have a touch of automobile ADD. Looking at a local M5, but not sure I want to pull the trigger.
