Aaahhhh no more rubbing...byebye bumper bracket!
So after installing my spacers last weekend ive been rubbing like a fat chicks thighs.
After a week of rubbing i take off the wheels and see the bumper brackets LMFAO ouch! http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...x/DSCN0934.jpg http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...x/DSCN0945.jpg Sooo with a little persuasion...i chopped em off! http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...x/DSCN0936.jpg Bye Bye bumper bracket!!! (sorry crappy pic) http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...x/DSCN0937.jpg The bumper still lines up and stays flush due to the clip thats about 5" away from the bracket. http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c1...x/DSCN0944.jpg :icon29: |
Hahaha.....Fat chicks thighs. Hows ur tires from all that rubbing?
|
theyre ok. it was "grazing" the sidewall so it wasnt really cutting into the tire at all.
|
Well thats good to hear. Could've been worse man, u never know.
|
Does the dude in the background have a mullet?
|
lmfao no thats my dad, aka my gopher.
A mullet is shaved on the sides, look how bushy his hair is lol |
Trimed my liner and bracket today as well, but no where near that much. Running 275/19 on OEM with 15mm spacer. Was hitting little bit of the liner and could see just a touch on the bracket, but when it hit it was pretty noisy.....yours must have been really loud?
|
U got rubbing issue as well. Need some chopping to do.
|
rubbing on stock rims = gay
|
To some mullet = business up front (check), party in the back (check), so.....
dude get that diffuser on already and take some pics, me want.

Yeah i had my liner and bracket trimmed since the week i got the car when i put on my lexanis.
Didnt have any rubbing til i put the spacers on the iforged and am basically running +17 in the rear. I trimmed the bracket down more but as you can see in the first two pics, it had to go, the driver side was basically gone anyway the bolt got completely torn out. lol |
At least I am in good company.....
