i did my old car with a hammer... cost me nothing but the paint was already fuked so i didnt care. if u have nice paint and straight gaurds i would advise against it.

oh and rolled is the lip is folded up and the other one is where the lip is cut off and grounded smooth

rolled is done with a machine that is placed on the hub, it rolls the guards up
evenly
lipped with a hammer and dolly as explained of before

i never have heard the idea of cutting and sanding smooth, which is bad as the lip/curve is there to give strutual strength to the panel and removing it makes it weaker, so it is dangerous
