Need help with info on Rolling fenders? pics?

I posted this some where else but this may be the place for best response. Thanks for your help!

I was told I may need to roll my fenders for my new suspension I was going to get. Before I do that, can someone clue me in with more info on exactly what happens. Pictures would be nice as well. I noticed there is a black plastic piece in the wheel wells. What happens to that peice if you roll the fenders over? how do they do that without damaging car?

I also heard of someone cutting them instead of rolling them. Bad idea/good idea? What is the price for something like this?

I have 22 x 9 with 14mm offset so the wheels are close to lining up with the fender line. I have Pirelli PZERO tires as well (265/35/22).

Thanks for all your help.

If you were to put your hand, palm up, just above the top of your tire and now grab the fender and squeeze, that is the area that would be "rolled" or compressed. Here's a picture of a tool that is used to do it. Will probably make a lot more sense to you. I remember in high school kids used to just use a base ball bat on their mini-truck fender wells.
