which screw to remove

[Scott_Hol]

This has definatly been answered before but guna try and get this done now and can find the thread. Fitting new wheels on sat and will rub on a certain rear bumper screw that i have heard some much about, after having a look i have removed the second screw up from either side but not sure if this is the right one. This is the one on the outside edge. Could someone please confirm this is the right one or point me in the right direction.

Cheers

you have to remove the screw that is right on the edge of the bumper where the bumper meets the wheels arch if you put your finger up there you can feel it

There is only one screw that will possibly touch, where the bumper meets the 3/4 panel. I removed mine and trimmed the plastic around the screw just to be safe as mine is REALLY close!

 

[FranA3]

i removed mine as the one side was touching as i had a cheapo tyre on that side and the side wall was too square

 

[FranA3]

here you go i took a picy so you know the location of which one to remove
