    I need to trim the front of my front fender liners/ bumper. It's right where the screw is that holds the corner of the bumper to the liner. It has that clip with threads for the screw. I need to cut back beyond the edge of the clip... probably beyond the bolt if I want to be thorough.

    What is your solution for cuts in that area. Looks like it still needs attachment for stability, just not sure of a good way.

    Any ideas and or pics are appreciated.

    Is this the lower line you are saying to cut at?
