Rear fender roll in SJ?

Anyone have any good experiences with people or shops doing a rear fender roll on the twins in the south bay area?

My 265's are just a touch too wide even with 1.8degree camber, I'm pretty sure they're still hitting the fender under hard compression. The bumper tab is pretty worn down already so I'm confident it's not going to go away on its own. Trying to avoid going much further with the alignment.

That's nothing! You should dial in more camber along with the fender roll. You'll be fine.

Well I got the rear fender roll done at Speed Element and one kinked slightly. In addition, I didn't realize how messed up the paint on the inside of the fender would be. To others looking to avoid heart-ache and learn from my experience I would just avoid rolling.

The good news is that the dent-pro mobile guy says he can fix it.
