Fender bending tool

click here to see it

For those who own a shop, a tool like this would help bending fender for wheel clearance and give it a more professional look.

I dont get it. The Japanese instructions look fun to read.

I heard a Louisville slugger works just as good.

I needed one of those I while back, but my younger brother's Metal Omaha Gold baseball bat worked VERY well......It is a very technical process. This server doesn't have enough storage to hold the write-up process for this procedure.....

You also may want to heat up the fender a bit to make the paint a bit pliable(stretchy) thats how the pros do it.
