Default pic request: shaved rear bumper and tab

hey guys,

i know you have to roll, or cut, the rear fenders first and foremost in order to fit lower offset wheels, but does anyone have any picture(s) of what you had to do with the bumper lip and bumper tab? if anyone can post up some pics, that would be great!

hey Blue, hit me up whenever you are in the city, I can do it for you. Isaac (spunky) showed me how to do it in my garage on a friends car. It's actually pretty simple and I have all the necessary tools.

you know i did a search for this and i found one thread but the guy had a DIY of rolling the fenders but had bad pictures of what he did. I would like to see some of these as well i need to do the same thing for my fenders but i dont know what to go by. Also anyone have a fender roller here in Tennessee or know where to rent one at(not trying to change your thread just a simple question

^^ i agree i remember seeing that thread and scratching my head.

i know you have to shave the tab off and find another place further down to pair the bumper back up with the rear quarterpanel but im not sure how to go about that.

that's all the farther you gotta move it? cool. seems pretty easy. just cut that junk off and re-bolt it up further down.
