Funny u asked, I just got dropped this past Sunday and desperately needed a roll and got it wednesday, but now during only certain turns I know I'm hitting the plastic rear bumper tabs lol. So I've been doing searches here trying to see what other people did/do lol. I could deal with it; compared to the rubbing without the roll this is nothing but to be perfect I'll figure something out.

 

i believe on mine the tab part of the rear bumper that was rubbing was just cut off. the corner of the rear bumper is able to be pulled out since the tab is gone, but it only comes out if you physically pull it out, if left alone you would never be able to tell the tab is gone.

the tab was shredding my tires haha...now with it gone, no more rubbing at all

 

thanks Konig, I'll give that a try.

 

Like this alot, always had a soft spot for nto3's!

 

I have 18x9.5 +30 but with 265/35. I was rubbing but just cut off the plastic piece and hammered the bumper tab up slightly. I didn't have to remove it just bend it up slightly. No rubbing at all. I did have to roll my fenders, but you will probably be doing that anyhow.

dat dere HRE wheels <3333333


How much did those set you back ? 4 grande ?

 

i got lucky and snagged them off another member here when he had them for sale, they only had about 100 miles on them so they were pretty much brand new.

if i remember correctly, i got them for around $3300 WITH tires, so pretty much only $2500ish for the rims alone. figured it would be the only time i would be able to afford HREs so i jumped on the deal ;D

 

Who makes that rear spoiler? I really like that one.

Have a ton of work to do to this baby, but I just got her a few days ago and couldn't be happier with the decision.

Apart from an intake and new wheels. What are some other upgrades to perform? Without going too crazy financially..lol
