Will this be easy to bend the brakes 3 mm?

I'm not sure if my shop will know to do this, so will it be that big of a deal?

I'm talking about bending 90mm Rossi FKS to fit either the Line TCs or Joystick These (92mm/93mm)

 
you wont have to bend at all. 3mm difference is only 1.5mm on each side (less than 1/16" for you yanks). in my experience, you're generally fine with about a 10mm wider ski than brakes and if they're just catching a little bit, you can shave a mm or two off of the inside of the plastic on the bottom of the brake. fks brakes are pretty easy to bend too, the hard part is just reassembling the heel assembly and getting the spring back in.
 
I find that for a difference such as 3mm little, if any bending is required. But if you're interested in how to bend your brakes, take a look here
