Just curious if any one was tried rolling or buldging out their steel fenders vs cutting them?

I know in the car scene its not out of the ordinary to roll your fenders to gain a bit of clearance while maintaining a stock look.

Essentially can I modify my fenders with VERY little to no cutting?

I have a spare set I could try it on, just no clue how to go about doing it as the 87 fender isnt not really a smooth arc.
 
both my qrters and fenders sectioning are bodylined, curved, hammer/dolley'd/shrunk...it requires patience and a few tricks..

be cool to throw one in an English wheel, or better yet, a small, air-powered, plenishing hammer..

I have seen your fenders and think they look fantastic, I just dont have the patience / body skills to do that right now.

Doing one on an english wheel would be sweet. That is essentially how the car fender rollers work. Pretty much a bolt to hub english wheel.
