How much do you have to shave off the front bumper support? What did you use? Will a dremel work? Thanks.

What are the offsets on those wheels? I want rims that have a lip.
A buddy of mine has these rims for sale.

Why not take the bumper support out? It weighs a little over 10 lbs (Maybe even 11-12) and it's hard to take weight out of the front.

If your front hits anything, I'm sure this support doesn't change too much.

I haven't noticed anything different about structural rigidity either.

Just a thought from a weight freak. = )

All you need to do is shave down is the bumper support corners and u wont have any problems.

Bumpin up and old thread with a question...Whats the deal with the undertray, fender liner etc. I noticed that you said you didnt switch it out with the AP2 Version does it completely not line up or whats the story here. I am about to do this but want to keep everything under the car working optimally. Thoughts?
