Fender rolling tool
A while back there was someone who had a Fender rolling tool for sale. I really do not want to purchase one, prefer to rent one, but will purchase if necessary. My 911 is waiting for this kind of tool.
Thanks Mark

location?
Your ID doesn't give your location....if there is a NAPA stor near you they may have a tool to rent.....you might also try a local auto paint supply store....or body shop....just some ideas to think about.

Here's one.
Shouldn't be too hard to get rid of when you're finished with it. Seems there is always someone wanting/needing to roll their fenders.

Tire Rack used to rent (or lend) as well. Try giving them a call.

Tire Rack has two and there is a 12 week waiting list. And I think the Eastwood unit does not fit 911 bolt pattern. Atleast that what the sales rep said, but he could be wrong.

If one Googles "fender roller rental" lots of renters come up. As Weaver mentions, double check fitment. Good luck.

If someone has one of these that they could loan out, I'll happily pay for shipping both ways.

I always thought you just used a wooden baseball bat and levered against your tire.

The Eastwood tools does work, it just takes 1/2 hour with a hacksaw to elongate the bolt pattern, and it works just fine. As I just finished the front fenders, now on the the rears.
Ps. It may crack the paint around the lip, lucky I'm still in primer
