CA Do you need fenders rolled?

Im thinking of buying a fender roller and heat gun to add to my tools list. its gunna cost a pretty penny for both.

anyhow what im debating is whether people would want to have their fenders rolled?

pricing as follows...
1-10 people, $100
10-20 people, $80
20+ people, $60

i think this pricing is fair, because i know some shops charge 140+ for all four fenders rolled without using a heat gun, which results in flaking of paint.

I dont want to charge for the heat gun because i have not perfected using a heat gun with the process of rolling a fender, but i want to give it a try, so if you feel your gunna paint your car soon, or dont mind a little flaking, i'll do your fender with the heat gun, but as of now, no gaurentees of no paint chip/flake. i did my own rear fenders, and no paint chipped nor flaked, but when i flared my front paint chiped and flaked.

please keep in mind that if you want flaring, i can do it, and i have done it before, but it will be extra, and flaring is never perfect, but i try my best to keep it even, and in most cases, bondo is needed to make it look alot better, unless its a minor flare.

Also, i am not a shop, i simply work on cars in my garage because i love cars, if you dont trust me with your car, then i dont want to be a dick, but i will not work on the car. I treat every car i work on as if it was my own, because i know everyone loves their own car. your more then welcome to chill out and wait for the car to finish as well...

anayways, just lemme know if you guys are interested.

Awesome bro, that last paragraph says a lot. Major props for your attitude...I myself work on other's cars and I avoid people who don't trust me 100% with the project. My work is my pride and more important than money...good to see others with the same beliefs.

Yah, i definitely hate working on people car that dont trust you. I havnt come across anyone like that so far, so its all good. I used to do audio installation, and if something went wrong like if i wired something wrong and it malfunctioned and resulted in damage, other than if it had to do with the crappy product itself, i'd offer a solution to fix it, or if it really came down to it, replaced it myself.
