Bumping this up. Got started on the rears of the car last night (fronts were as easy as any of my other cars I've done). I ground pretty much ALL of the sealant out of the wheel arch as could be done. It took about 4 hours to get all of it out. The backside of the fender lip is smooth metal, i.e. minimal residual rubber/sealant.
I have started to roll the rears, but they aren't giving very much. Does anyone have any pictures of what their fender lips actually look like after being rolled? I want to see how far to push them before giving up.

Using this handy pic found in this thread:


Does the portion of the fender lip that the big red arrow is pointing towards roll flat? The "Step 3" section seems to be coming along, but the bulk of the fender lip doesn't really want to go.

Is this as far as the fender will go?
