My body guy did my 01 with a hammer (very gently!). It was just the front part of the lip that was the problem. He did paint the part we rolled just to make sure there was no problem in the future.



I want to put 19x10 wheels in the rear (with 275x30 tires) and I heard that it may be necessary to roll the fenders a few mm to provide tire clearance. Is it necessary to heat the fender area when rolling? Are there any short or long term paint effects?
