Rubbing help
#2
Are you still running fender liners? On the aggressive stance thread check the last few pages, it's been discussed. What specs are the wheels and tire size you're running? Pics would help as to how low the car is set too :D .
Now I'm still running fender liners on mine and took a heat gun to the bump on the fender liner right by where the bumper and fender meet and pushed that in. Only time I rub is speeding over big bumps(I know I should slow down though). The heat gun I used was a Ryobi at 200* setting, do not use any attachments, and keep on working the heat gun up and down the area for several minutes, I used the butt end of the handle of a hammer and pushed it in. If it doesnt mold in keep working the heat gun and try after a couple of minutes. Then I got a damp towel(cold water) to cool the plastic. I had to redo the passenger liner since the bump popped back out(I didn't use enough heat/didn't cool it down to hold shape) but the driver's side I did no problem. It's been a week since I've done this and is still holding shape and my rubbing has been minimized to to only bumps I don't slow down on like I said.
