1. If you are doing a big break kit and you use a spacerto move your wheels out to clear the caliper you will have to roll the fenders to allow enough room for the tires!
2. If you have a low offset wheel you might have some rubbing issues as well.

Yeah the deal is it is coming from ohio and it takes about two days...to get to me...then I have 5 days to use it and then ship it back with the prepaid return label inclulded. It is only going to cost me 50$ rental that is with the shipping and then a 300$ fully refundable deposit, just incase youdecide to keep it they want to at least have the money to replace it. But thats it and they send you the fender roller along with a heat gun and a video on how to do it. SO its a pretty good deal if anyone is interested...www.rollyourfender.com
Good product. Used it on my friends 350z. Make sure you have two people, one for the heat and one for the roller. Go slow and don't crack the paint.

you pay a deposit and a fee for the rental. They send it out. You do your thing and send it back. A buddy used them for rolling is 350z fenders. Worked great!

Really the only difference is 10$ but I would say rollyourfender.com is a better deal even though they have a higher refundable deposit...although the dasautosport guy said the one he had on the shelf was damn near brand new and that means not to much wear and tear. Just something to think about.
I wouldn't worry about the condition. The one we got from rollyourfenders looked to be brand new. They are a real simple device, not much to mess up on them.
On the 350z we did I don't remember an issue with the plasic fender liner. Must be different on that car because I don't even remeber it being there.
After the first fender we did, we found the best process to be roll it in a little at a time, step by step. Trying to do too much at once caused slight paint cracking.

1. If you are doing a big break kit and you use a spacerto move your wheels out to clear the caliper you will have to roll the fenders to allow enough room for the tires!
2. If you have a low offset wheel you might have some rubbing issues as well.

To each his own though..

im also curios as whats going to happen with the splash gaurds, the clips attach right to the edge of the inner fender.
looks like i'll need to do this too since im addign 20 mm spacers. i didnt realize this made that big of a difference.
it looks like in the after picture his fender isnt like the smoothest curve i've ever seen has a little bit of a "dent" in it.
