Show me pics of your trim job! I got rubbing with lift.

Yeah.. I knew that title would get somebodies attention but, I have searched the forum and can't find any nice pics.

I installed my new ToyTec 3" lift with 885 front coils and 285/70/17 BFG ATs. I get a little rubbing when I crank my wheel. I see which part is rubbing and it's the little nub on the front of the cheap plastic fender.

I was thinking about using a dremel and cutting wheel. Does anyone have any pics to show how they cut this nicely?

Thanks...

Sorry no pics but I used a razorblade to cut the "nub" off. I first heated the part with a heat gun and then went at it with a box cutter. It cut's like butter once heated.

Anyone seen any pics? I saw a couple pics on this site but they looked pretty scary.
