Ughhh... Rolling my fenders is probably my biggest regret with my hatch. It turned out looking like a pile of d!ck.

Who here knows the difference between a roll and a pull? It's evident a few of you are confused.

I'm not trying to have the most ridiculous looking fenders. The more you pull, the more spacer or bigger tire your going to need to make it flush.

Rolling means just flattening the inner lip of the fender, pulling is actually making the fender flair out. I'd rather just call it rolling cause that's how I made them flair out...saying "hey I pulled my fenders" sounds kinda dumb. lol

you get the flare from using a fender roller, so I'm saying rolling because thats what I'm talking about. You just have to adjust the roller as you go to get the flares and not just flat. so who is confused?

I guess the people that interchange the terms because they share a medium are confused. Just because the same tool is used does not make the two effects the same.

Perhaps one could argue that a pull is just an extreme degree of the roll; however, the automotive community has generally accepted two distinguished results and named them as such.

The way that I came to the conclusion that confusion was afoot was the observation of misuse of the aforementioned terms. Now I could make my observation and conclude you guys are retarded, another extreme which results from the same observation; but you guys obviously are not retarded much like a roll is not a pull.

Savy?

Synopsis: go to a shop and ask for a roll and see what you get.

Sorry, I'm just being nit-picky lol.

Mr. Crowson, you raise some valid concerns.

As such, I rescind my previous statements. The fenders on my automobile have been both "rolled" as well as "pulled".

Hence my previous assertion that the overall end-result of said fender modifications on my part resulted in, and I quote, "a pile of d!ck", end quote.

Bravo good sir. You truly have a far superior understanding of such technical gargin.

Aside from this nonsensical superfluous terminology, I've seen that link that you (matt) showed me before. Truly and utterly badass stuff on there. I must say, it gives me hope that one day I can break into the 300s with an s chassis.

Ryan- seriously? do you think I give a s*** what you have to say? can you name an exact point where the action of rolling a fender becomes pulling a fender? to me, its all f***ing fender rolling. why? because I dont see anyone out there pullin on their fender. theyre rolling it. or pushing it with a roller if youd prefer. soooo stfu.

and either way, i wouldnt go to a shop to get my fenders rolled. i would just do it myself.

just sayin.

Yeah really! Haha I guess if you are a true badass you can do whatever you want. This is just the tip of the iceberg of things you don't give a s*** about right? I bet you drift to get back at the man? Seriously read what you just said.

I know you wouldn't go to a shop, that wasn't the point. I don't tell people I baseball batted my front left fender, lead piped my front right and newspapered my rears. Just because I used those tools doesn't mean that's what it's called.

And no, I can't tell you the exact point a roll becomes a pull but I'm sure an engineer like Mr. Higgins could easily find out how much pressure needs to be exerted on the fender to cross the line between the two.

I'm a woman. when you come in here with your know-it-all attitude about whether we're using the right word or not, I get a little pissed. Everyone knows what is being talked about. Why does it matter? No one needed your smart a** remarks.

you can go f*** yourself too. I didn't start it. this thread was going perfectly fine until he made his comments about us being "confused." Everyone knew what was being discussed. He doesnt have to tell us exactly how we're wrong. I can consider it still a roll anf not a pull if i damn well please.

Marshall, I don't even feel like starting with you right now.

HEY!!!!

i didn't say anything, just a little bit of instigation!

i "rolled" my fenders with a 19mm deep socket, a girl, and a floor jack handle...

for the record -

Rolling = laying the inner lip of a fender/quarter panel flat against the inner fender/quarter panel.

Pulling = to roll (see above), and "Flare" the outer edge of a fender/quarter panel...

"pull" comes from flaring, as in to "pull" the lip out away from the factory body work, if you say "push" it implies to set IN the outer lip, and not to flare it outward...

no ands ifs, or buts.... if anyone thinks rolling/pulling is the same thing, they're wrong...

then again, what i do i know? i didn't know the proper way to run my zip ties when doing proper body work, and holding my bumper together....

You're right it doesn't matter in the long run as long as you don't mind looking like an idiot. Who cares if there's three different forms of there? They're all pronounced the same and it's their choice whether or not to acknowledge them..

What you see as being a smartass is really just me trying to clarify terminology. Newbs do stuff like that all the time and it takes some smartass to point them in the right direction. When your teacher asks who can state a difference do you meet them with hostility and tell them to stfu?

As auto enthusiasts we should care we're using the right terminology. If we were talking about horses and someone was butchering the lingo you'd be the first person to point out their err.

I could understand your hostility if I came in here and said you f***ing dummies a roll is x and a pull is y! I don't think it's me though seeing as you've told 3 other people to f*** off on this page lol.

when people offend me, I generally get hostile. sorry.

I know there is a difference between a roll and a pull. Ive been around long enough to know that. But seriously, in context of the discussion going on, did it really matter that you had to come in an "correct" us? you just sounded like a jerk and to that I take offense.

I still dont think I'm wrong to say "you need to roll your fenders more" because to me its still an action of rolling even if its "technically" a pull. which i still honestly dont give a s*** about.

Tom however, can still f*** off.
