Pic request of 172/182 modded bumper/wing bracket

[Dan Page]

I have cut the plastic out where it rubs with a stanley knife and bent the metal back a wee bit but still it rubs on islands if i take them a lil quick.

It's only in one place so has someone done anything else to stop this? I dont think its as low as my 1.2 and that dint rub this much!

just trim back the metal bracket with an angle grinder.

 

[Turkish]

lol, dan if you were closer i'd sort it for you. Either bend the bracket some more or get a grinder on it.

 

[Dan Page]

loony where are you again mate?

 

[Turkish]

Yhpm

 

[Jamie _Swales]

have you actualy got any pics of the car lowered? mine still rubs even after we did this

 

[Dan Page]

Its this low at the front. Not to low is it?

 

[Dan Page]

actually, ignore that last pic, i wound em down more after that one i think.

 

[Jamie _Swales]

probs about the same as mine then, thinks mines slightly lower than the pics. Two guys off here did my arch work for me, so not realy sure what they did to it.

It still scrapes like a biatch, and i can only have one person in the back.

 

[Dan Page]

well loony has sent me some info so i will try that and if it still rubs i will just raise it.

After all, i had my low days with the 1.2 lol

 

[ant]

doesn't look that low tbh! i mean, its low, dont get me wrong but with all the hassles i expected it to be scraping the floor!

just wind it up a few turns, gets rid of the hassel! they need to be driven hard, no point worring about the scraping etc mine is low and only catches when i hammer the car into dips etc

 

[cK]

Mine doesn't rub at all but I am running on 15's.

what size tyres do ph1 172 come with? i know they are 15's but what side wall?

 

[Dansta]

i didnt cut anything out..... just did alot of bending.... its a work of art.... and dont get scraping...

 

[cK]

what size tyres do ph1 172 come with? i know they are 15's but what side wall?

195/50/15 i think mate.

 

[Dan Page]

can some one please post a pic of the actuall bracket and what they have done to it please.

 

[Dansta]

sorry dude, cant get a pic without jacking c ar up... and its pissing outside...

 

[matty w]

not being funny but it seems a lot of money to spend on suspension to have it scraping i've got h&r's on mine but there setup to handle,have you had the camber setup ?
