Rolling the Fender Lip For Clearance
Often the rear tires that we put on our cars are just a little bit too
wide and rub slightly on the inner fender lip. Heres a step by step guide to bending
the lip up and out of the way.
I have to admit that these instructions are from the http://integra.vtec.net site, I was
going to write my own but decided that there was just no way I could say it any better.
1. Peel off the rubber fender lip
protector as shown.
Here's another shot of what the
fender lip looks like.
2. Place Mr. Louisville as such.
It will be easier to start towards the sides and then twist the Slugger upwards until it's
at the top.
3. Though this pic shows the bat
angled down, I would recommend pushing the bat gently upwards to get the fender lip
bending initially.
4. After the lips bend up enough,
you can start pushing down to really start trying to get that lip tucked back up.
You should also angle the bat
forwards like this to get that lip to gently bend up.
5. Here you can see the fender lip
already starting to yield to my awesome telekinetic skills and bat power.
6. Place the rubber stip back and
whaa-la! It's done....for now, and you really can't even tell.
Heres a pic of a real neat tool that was made just for
this job. No I don't know where it came from or who made it.
