no i have no pics of the fender liners being trimmed but not that much was taken off. its very easy and simple. all the homie did was take a razor blade and trim the edge off right before he rolled the front and rears.

i think you are talking about the coilover dampening. i meant my actual coilover spring rates are too soft for how low i am. so instead of the BC standard 10k/8k hopefully in the near future im going to sell my current BC's, and get customed rates. probably like 18k/12k then slam out

yeah those are super easy to install just make sure you measure out perfect the distance between the 2 jdm tabs. because once you drill the fender, thats it lol.

If you have them installed whats the distance you measured? Im gonna rhino line my fenders after removing my plastic liners will only leave enough to wrap around the fog lights, I will also be on the look out for some camber arms my wheels are really aggressive so need more camber in the rear.

me and my homie just measure enough distance between the tabs to make sure there was tension on the rubberband when it was looped on the tabs. thats it
