my friend rolled his own fenders with a hair drier and a baseball bat. Heat it up and use the rounded end to push the fender out.

knowing me I will mess it up [:@]

Oh by the way, that yellowish line on the tire is where my fender hits. It doesn't hit the whole thing but only about 6-8 inches of the tire.

EDIT: I have been reading not a lot of info about springs. Now I am in doubt as to whether get the springs put on our not [&:] I heard the Tanabe's, which is what I have, are not the greatest springs to upgrade to. And if I upgrade my springs, I should get new shock pads eventually since the stock pads won't last long with aftermarket springs. I don't know now I am confused lol.

I know I love my Eibach Pro-kit springs.

I also run Eibach springs on my off-road race truck that is under development.

A dealership may be able to do it (they do have their own body shops in many cases), but it may expose you to them trying to pull some BS in regards to your paint warranty.

I've heard of people rolling the fenders with a bat as well, but I've never witnessed someone doing it that way.

You could always buy the fender rolling tool. Search yahoo under fender rolling tools and I'll bet you'd find what you need.

It's really not a major difficulty for body shops. Go there and theyu'll probably only charge you an hours time and maybe a few other hidden charges on top of that.

Well at the dealer, he said I am rubbing since the tires stick out farther then stock, which they do. Something about spacing of the rim is different. But anyways he told me not to roll the fender, just have a body shop bend the inner lip up. But I thought bending that lip up is rolling the fender? Anyways, that would solve the problem. As for the springs, he said it would take an hour and a half for each freaking spring to install. So I might just go to Midas since my relative owns it and hopefully he can do it for cheap.

Did your old wheels have any spacers on them if so I'd remove those first. Then roll the fender (inner lip is same hting he just said it more professionally)

I am not sure if they had spacers. The old wheels were stock.

I have been searching the questions concerning cai & cel and have not heard any mention of getting an O2 sensor code. I put a K&n typhoon cai on my 2.3 and after driving it for a week or so I keep getting the same O2 sensor code. After contacting K&N they told me to unhook the neg. battery cable and let it sit for one hour before rehooking it. This is supposed to reset the computer to accept the cai but after doing this 5 times and the light still coming on after driving for a week or so, I have come to the conclusion that it is not going to fix my problem. I would appreciate any help or advice to solving this aggrevation.
