Erick, make sure you and your body body shop that will do the "fender rolling" know WHERE the rubbing is coming from. From what Ive seen in person and on these forums 90% of the rubbing on the S model comes from the rubber lining inside the fender toward the rear, not the actual metal in the middle, top part of the fender. All you have to do is take your hand and rub (no pun intinded) your fingers inside the fender and where you feel the tire residue thats where you know its rubbing. Cutting out some of that rubber lining in the inside should do the trick. But make sure you and the body shop get "your ducks in a row" before you do the work and start doing unneccessary alterations. Good Luck with it though.
