In the front wheel well you have to grind the union of the bumper and the fender.

We use a pneumatic angle grinder with a 24grit Roloc disc

This is the portion of the rear side of the front wheel well plastic removed

And this is the portion of the front side removed

Hammer this seam that will cut the tire

Cut this stud

Make sure you cut these tabs off before hand to give the roller a uniform contact surface for a clean roll

We use the parts Shop MAX fender roller to bend the lip flat and slightly flare the fender

When the work is done, the lip on the fender will be pressed up against the skin of the fender

In the back the lip is already completely flat, so just cut off this plastic shoulder from the rear bumper area

Grind the rear bumper mounting tab back at an angle

I dont know if any other coilovers go this low, but on ours the axle was ocassionally touching the RUCA tab so we cut it back a little.

The results with Volk GTC 20x9.5 +16 (after 15mm spacer) 225-35-20 toyo and 20x10.5 +22 255-35-20 nitto
The volks fit over the rear hub just fine but the front hub was a no go, so the front sapcer was mandatory in this case.
The rears will probably get a matching spacer later and we'll put a flare on the rear quarter with the roller to match the front


Here was the stock look just so you can see what a big difference all of this makes...

You know, without the spacer thats certainly doable, but right now I am the guinea pig. When there is no documented fitment for this car at this ride height, Its a but of trial and error, and the next set of wheels could be perfect, but I am very pleased with this setup for now after running stock wheels for so long, ill hold off on the optimal front lip.
