Fender Roller?

Well, she's back... Almost 4 months but my car is back on the road. It looks good, but of course will have to go back for a few minor details. However, since I went with the 285/35/18s in the back I am getting some rub. Anyone know who does fender rolling in the area? This is pretty urgent since I'm alreading noticing a groove on the tire.

Glad to hear u got ur car back.

One question.... how does your exhaust sound?

Mine sounds really crappy... too much "ppffftt" noise not enough "Vroooom"
We both have the same exhausts. Try to make it to the next meet so we can
compare.

I also need to go back to Martins for a "few details" myself.

Good luck with the rolling of the fenders.

Congrats Slim!! I'm glad you've got your baby back. Now we just need to convince you to bring her out and show her off......

Try contacting DFWMazda for a fender roller. I think he had a "fender rolling party" a while back, but I'm not sure if it was his or not...... I think there's a thread talking about this on the 7 forum too.

Thanks Dazy...

I'm still in need, so my car is parked again. I already have a pretty good groove in my brand new tires.

Blue- I love my exhaust. It sounds very clean and deep. It goes really good with the intake mod I did. Something must be wrong with yours.

Anyway... anyone who can help me would be much appreciated.

DFWmazda was borrowing one a while back, he doesn't have it anymore.

Try calling a freind of mine David, his number is 817-366-4700, he should know where to get your fenders rolled.

Thanks everyone... I got them rolled today. No more rubbing.

She'll be at the BBQ... both of them. My car will probably get a little more work done to it this week, but we will be at the BBQ for sure.

Thanks again for everyone's help.
