Well now since i did my rear end conversion from a turbo coupe my wheels will rub the fender lip when the spring is compressed. we all know the turbo coupe axles are 3/4 inch widder then stock.
Anyway i am now worried my 26x10.5 slicks arnt going to fit anymore.
I know i need to roll the lip, should i have a body shop do it or what?

A poor mans way is to get a good body man that is hopefully a pal. A good body man can use a bat. Note: a good body man!!! Usually he won't charge much. I have seen my buddy do this numerous times.

Eastwood sells them and they have a no refund policy, only a replace policy, so your stuck with it once you buy it.

I was quoted $300 to roll the lips at a local body shop using a tool (similar to this I assume) and not a bat. For that price buying one and doing it myself seems like the only way.
