rolling my guards

[ryan86]

i got a vs ute and need to roll my rear guards, has any one done it by them self and if so how do i do it with out damaging the guards and paint, cheers

Yes very easy to do. Get a heat gun on the paint to soften it up so it does not crack, then use a rubber hammer with very light smashes to the guard to roll it inwards, probably 10m per guard to do.

but wouldnt heating it up run the risk of blistering the paint?

Your car probably gets more damage by letting it sit in the sun for one day. You're only heating it up slightly for at least 10 minutes, you're not trying to cook the car, only warm it up so that it does not crack easily.
