rolling fenders propperly requires a fender roller.
i charge $50/corner if i have to save the paint on the fenders, $25/corner if it is going in for paint after.
a cheap and easy way to do it although you may damage the fneders and paint if you are not carfull... if you have minimal wheel gap you can go to homedepot and get a hardwood dowel slightly larger that the gap you have. put the car on a flat surface with room infront and behind the car(a nice smooth parking lot would work). get a buddy to help and put the dowel infront or behind the tire and between the fender and tire.
roll the car forward or backwards to make the dowel roll up the tire and press back the fender.
obviously the dowel needs to be on the angle of where the fender needs to be rolled back to give you the propper clearence.
it is best to heat up the fender lips with a heatgun or high powered hair dryer to soften the paint.
good luck!
