Anyone know someone good in the GTA that does this?

Check with RXSmooth, he had his fenders rolled and you couldn't even tell the difference. I think he did it locally.

Easy enough to do yourself. Just takes borrowing a rolling tool (preferable over more primitive methods) and using a heat gun. Going slow, not employing too much bend per pass, and applying heat to small areas at a time as you progress the roll is critical to protecting the paint from cracking.

Sort of like what they do in this youtube vid:

^ Thanks. Think I will get someone else to do it so I don't mess it up. Locally, I heard that Tires23 does it...

Why you rollin thunder?

Think Al said he knows someone, I believe the S6 had to be. I could be wrong, I am getting old you know, and my memory is fading.

Putting on 15mm hubcentric spacers and believe I will need to roll the fenders.

I will check with Al too... thx old man!

rotarygreg

what brand spacers are they?

rx8thunder

This is the one I want…
2008 - 2009 Eibach Wheel Spacer Bolt Pattern 5x114.3, Center Bore/Hub Dia. 67.1, Spacer Width 15mm, System 4 Mazda RX-8 R2 1.3L Part#: 90.4.15.002.1

Can be seen here


Of note, I can use these with Volks because of the cavity I have. For OEM wheels, go with 25 MM version and it will work perfectly and you won't have a problem with OEM studs obstructing wheel to hub fitment

I thought you liked the off set of the Volks set up?

rx8thunder

^ Think it could be better, visually speaking.

The pursuit of perfection is something white people will never understand... i.e. think Lexus vs. General Motors, and look where they are now.

^ OMG footman, everything based on race

I admit, I am picky
