Any panel beater can do it for ya, just a matter of finding someone for the right price...
I heated the paint up with the hair dryer (a heat gun would be much better... probably a worthwhile invsetment but i was completely broke...) and trimmed the fender liner thing that attaches to it a bit, then went at it with a hammer. No paint cracks or anything, looks pretty much perfect(although on one side on some angles you can see a very slight sort of bump which distorts the reflection a tad i suppose on one of the fenders :/ mine are convered up with the textured flares anyway so it doesnt bother me.
Did mine with a mallet, some minor rage issues and a bucket full of dreams.
um... don't,
if you're DIYing, look at Might Car Mods on facetube/youbook just search mighty car mods guard rolling, marty and moog know their stuff, you need a combination of bravery and stupidity to pull it off. God speed.

I know this thread is old but I'm looking at doing this. I know you can buy guard rollers on eBay but am keen to know results from a mallet or the price they paid to get it done. Pretty much just trying to figure out the best way to do it. Thanks
