who has rolled the rear quarter lips.

I picked up the tool (east wood) to do this last year..and wanted to ask has anyone done this..

that lip looks and feels like it will take a few steps more then just the tool. and wanted to ask what have others done...

Re: who has rolled the rear quarter lips.

The prior owner of my Camaro had taken a cut off wheel to the inner lip and made slits then just bent the slits all the way up. Not the best way to go about it but it works and is hidden. I'll take a picture and post.

Re: who has rolled the rear quarter lips.

I have the eastwood roller. I did mine . It works well but it will take many adjustments and many steps. I hoped it wouldnt hurt the paint, but it broke off in pieces, it didnt brake off on the outside of the quarter ,but it got close

Re: who has rolled the rear quarter lips.

We used a wooden Baseball Bat just before I took it in for paint.
Just rolled it enough that it would not cut into a 255/60r15 tire.
