Good but don't expect bargain basement prices. Workmanship is excellent though.

Didn't Rise say they used a pipe to roll fenders? Not hating on the shop or anything but IMO if I didn't roll my shit myself then I'd much rather take it to someone who uses the proper equipment, evn if the end result was the same

^ I asked Akira before hand and he said it will be rolled with a proper fender roller. He even called me after I left to ask for my wheel locks.

That being said, I've came across this post:

well actually, I'm on last resort here, nobody could pull my rears because they're cut so the sheet metal inside would start separating from the actual outer fender. So I may just need some "special techniques" after all to get it done, heh

$40 and up per fender is awesome price, I'm gonna call him tomorrow and see if I can come in so he could take a look at least, I only need a mild pull anyway barely half an inch so hopefully it will work.
I'm gonna be there at the shop though will see it done with my own eyes

got my rear fenders rolled by phil on saturday, he also test fitted my wheels too to see how much rolling it needs for an awesome price!

He told me to come again if i need more rolling done (just in case i go even lower and need more rolling) and he will do it again for no charge!

If Gerard can't do it then I kind of doubt anyone else can lol

And see this thread about the pipe rolling:

Did you expect them to charge you for fixing something that they did incorrectly?

The real question is, what did they do for you in order to compensate for wasting your time by doing an incorrect job in the first place?

http://www.revscene.net/forums/fende....html?t=617619


oooh I wanna fuckin fail myself after reading my post on that thread!

when I first cut my fenders off, the metal sheeting on the inside was very tough to cut through so I originally thought if they were tough to cut, they would be a bitch to pull, boy was I wrong.

yea I was over at Gerards the other week, he said he could give it a shot but he rather wouldnt since he's a perfectionist, he had no feel of how it would turn out... and I understood. I told him I was repainting my car next summer anyway so I'll be back to get it done the right way then. For now I need a half inch pull just enough for it to flare outwards instead of directly down to the ground, just a temporary fix so I can slam my car at least. As you can see in the picture here there is no way I can drop it any lower without the fender digging into my sidewall, even if I camber the shit out of it.

Thanks for the love guys!
As for fender rolling I did it for years the old school way how do you think it was done before fender rollers were made.
We have since got a new fender roller and guess what It does the same job its just easier and I no longer break a sweat doing it. Hence I don't mind adding a little pull down the road for customers at no charge.
G-spec if you like come by and I'll see what we can do.

^ I was gonna drop by tomorrow Phil if that's ok with you?
so you could take a look at it see if anything can be done

Like I said I just need around a half inch or so enough to slam the car and tuck some tire without the fender digging into the sidewall. I will be repainting the whole car towards the end of this year and will let Gerard loose on all 4 fenders before it goes in the booth.

+1, got a tiny job done by them, had to fix the timing on my s14. i think i was dealing with Akira, either way i've spoken to Phil on the phone and they're both very nice and professional.

I don't know what you guys mean by bringing out our wallets, their prices are pretty competitive and you get what you pay for.


anyhow i would recommend, and i would take my car to them for things my friends shop can't take care of, at $50/hr labour i can't pass it up.

sorry Phil!

Ok experience with them a year ago. I was too lazy to install a steering wheel so I got them to do it plus fix my ignition. They called me back saying it was all ready, but I found out when i arrived that the wheel was installed crooked and that they didn't bother with the ignition. Still had to pay for an insane labour price for the steering wheel install.
