I've been waiting for a pic of this as well. When people say the words, "relocate rear bumper bolt" it sounds like so much more than doing whats in the picture lol.

Just getting my 17x9.5 +44's on, may have to do this!

I agree. I always thought it was more involved than that. That seems almost too easy

its plastic so the paint on it is pretty flexible. For me, I used a dremel.

there's no paint damage at all. just heat up the section of the rear bumper you want to shave, and cut it with a knife or dremel.
