Just installed lowering springs and struts, wanting some advice.

Need fender rolling advice
I just got my used Tokiko's and Espelir springs put on from a buddy. They ride pretty decent but they lowered more than I was expecting. The ground clearance looks ok but the wheel well clearance in the rear is a little low for my taste. What can you do? I heard someone say he had to roll his fenders, but what exactly does that mean? Can someone show me a picture of it?
Is this what you do? http://www.vtec.net/articles/v...=3511

BTW, If the baseball bat method ruins the paint I don't care. The front of the car is primer and I'm going to be heading to the rear when I get the hood and doors done. Does the baseball bat method work for rolling though?

Re: (prolifik22)
is it actually hitting the inner fender? If not there is no reason to roll the fenders. It will also mess the paint up. My friend had his done and now it is rusting.

Not when I drive alone. It will more than likely hit if people are in the back, and I would rather not have it rip my tires to shred with the sharp edge there now. I'm going to primer and paint it anyway and It already has some rust right above it so I will just fix that at the same time.
My question is will a metal bat work? I've seen a japanese guy do it with a metal pipe, but he wasn't speaking English so I have no idea what he is saying.
