Thumbs up Bumper Tab Relocation Help

I never really found a visual step by step thread on clublexus in regards to the bumper tab relocation mod. I stumbled upon this post on the wrongfitmentcrew forum and hopefully this should help out some people having rubbing issues from being slammed. See post #46 http://www.wrongfitmentcrew.com/foru...ods-quot/page3

Big thanks to awdalbert on wfc forum

Also, not to hijack, but what are people doing about removing this guy:



Id really rather do something clean an internal than the exterior quick releases conventionally available. Anyone done this? Its chewing up my tires.
