Yeah, they're gonna scrape like crazy in the front! Back is fine. You can cut them and they look fine.

metal shears is what I used, then you gotta file it off a little bit but should look okay.

That is what mine does on hard corners too. I'd say just cut them a little bit.

They will eventually just wear down enough so that they dont rub... they will look like **** though... mine do.

i took my front ones off because every time I hit a dip in the road, it'd scrapE! Then again, I also got the oem optional side skirts so the splash guards wouldnt fit.
