Review on Heavy Duty Wheel Arch Roller Flaring Former For Automobile Maintenance - Goplus Fender Roller Reforming Tool (Blue) by Dave Rasic

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Don't be afraid to buy this roller instead of eastwood

I was skeptical buying this at about half price if the eastwood brand roller. Lots of the reviews stated missing/ breaking parts. Before I even using it. I treated all the threads on it with silicone spray lubricant as well as some silicone grease. I have never rolled fenders before. But rolling my 2012 nc miata( lug pattern 5x114.3) fenders was relatively easy. Use a heat gun, it softens the metal and ensures you won't Crack paint. My miata is lowered on meister r coilovers, this made getting the very last bit of the fender by the doors impossible. But a some heat and the deadblow hammer mad it no problem I have been working on cars professionally/ personally for ten years. This is a good tool. Like most complex tools it requires some up keep. Keep the threads lubricated. Take your time, watch YouTube videos if you are unsure. I haven't used an eastwood roller before but there isn't anything I wish this one did that it doesn't. Possibly a shorter arm to accommodate smaller wheel wells on Lower cars. But that's nit picking.

Pros
  • 💎 Effectively & Efficiently Reforming Tool--- This fender roller works on fender from inside wheel well, it can increase the clearance between the tire and the fender to fit larger tires, repair the dent or damage of the fender.
Cons
  • Potential to overstretch the metal and cause permanent damage
