Does anyone know someone who shaves or cuts underneath the fender so tires wont rub. yeah maybe the car might to low but better clearance. i know some of you guys have been talking about shaved fenders but still might rub underneath.
or shaving the fender also includes shaving or cutting extra metal underneath.

 

i used a heat gun and a mechanix glove.
i just did it enough so that my car doesnt rub in front
with my sportlines. im gonna be doing it again once i get my
coilovers =]

 

Have you already rolled/pulled your fenders?

 

^me??

 

My bad. OP.

 

oh ok.
its all good agent k5

 

well underneath the fender not the wheel well its been rolled. my other question is if u cut it the extra metal inside will it effect the strength or rigidness of the car. if it does not i was thinking of cutting all of the extra metal and smooth it out prime and paint to make it real clean. the car does not rub outside but rubs inside where the extra metal is coming out.

 

Are you referring to the fender liner? If you're not rubbing with the metal of the fender, then you don't need to do what you suggested. If you're rubbing on the inside, try removing your plastic fender liner if you already have not.

 

plastic fender has been removed.

 

good god. how low is your car? got any pics. Im IMO slammed on coilovers and i dont have any rubbing issues. Im exactly at the point where i dont hit on speed bumps and no rubbing if i go any lower i would.

 

ok between the coilover and the tire, sheet of metal has been rolled out. im satisfied with the previous owner that work on it. but was wondering if i cut that piece will it effect the rigidness of the car. its seems like that sheet of metal is combined with the frame. is it possible to cut those pieces of access metal, weld it back together, paint n everything that goes with it so it looks real smooth and plenty of more room? n have u heard of anyone that does it or have done it before?

will be putting on sway bars to limt rubbing while going up on curbs. hope that description helps.

wtf???

anyways, OP: what kind of setup are you working with? drop/wheels etc

 

That is the OP.

He didn't really jack the thread.

 

Did anyone bother to ask this guy if he is actually talking about OUR model year car....'06 and up Civic....or his '96 Civic??

OP....I wouldn't cut into anything that connects to the frame of the car. If you're having to go through all that trouble to stop something as simple as rubbing issues....then you need to either (A) Check you camber alignment or (B) Raise your car back up a little higher.

I have a 2" drop on my coilover setup on my FG2 with front camber set at -1.0 and have no inside rubbing issues at all.

 

OP do your tires stick out like an inch from the fenders that requires you to cut?

 

I'm in for an answer as well.

At first I thought that was in concordance with his first Honda, but now that I think about it he joined less than a month ago.

 

Anyone who would, sure as hell would not admit it on a public forum. A forum that is likely monitored.
