sounds like your on track, just remember to go crazy w/ the heat gun.
1. heat plastic
2. push away from potential rub spot with (something), I used a rock
3. while holding fender plastic in place where you want it, spray with ice cold water to cool quickly and harden in place
4. enjoy not hearing your luxury sedan make embarrasing rubbing noises

great suggestions, can't wait to do this, gotta get the heat gun back asap!
just a quick question, there's this sharp screw/bolt on the upper part where the bumper connects to the fender, what do you do with that?

Thread revival I know, sorry. Just quick question, do you have to use a zip tie for that bumper tab mod? I had a body shop do it for me and they put a new screw in there instead. So basically I have the same mod you guys do but no zip tie, just a different screw.
