rolling your fenders for the first time might not be the best idea, paint can easily crack if you do not execute it properly. What kind of suspension are you running? Rolling the fenders can be done with a tool that can be ordered from Tirerack (expensive) or a couple lightweight hammers, or the very old school way of heating and baseball bat (louisville slugger)
