    I rolled my rear fenders. Takes 15 min per side. I haven't noticed any rust and I've driven through a winter here in Canada where we get salt on the roads.

    Also, with my 195 tire, the tires still rub on hug bumps. Its not the fender lip any more but the inner fender itself.

    Thank you for the information. I also have 195s. Don’t mind the noise but don’t like the tire cutting. Lol. I’ll be doing it this Friday.

    So I rolled my fenders this past weekend and it went great for a beginner. I also used the finishing pliers to help it flush up a bit. I can fit my 15x7+38 195/45 without any scrubbing issues except for a small dent where the fender and bumper meet for some reason.

    The rear will rub on huge bumps or if you have a lot of weight in the rear still. I have the same size and offset wheels.

    I never have rear passengers so that won’t be an issue. My state has horrible roads and don’t have any rubbing issues..... so far. Lol

    Edit: I should note that I have the BC coilover set and my dampening as stiff as it gets so that probably helps.

    Wow, your Mirage looks great! That blue really is a nice color on the facelift models. The white rims really offset it nicely, as well.

    Keep up the good work! ��

    Definitely helps having a stiff suspension.

    Your blue car looks awesome. But do I detect a hint of an FRS in that picture?
