    Yeah it’s the “C” size with the 1” ball. Then I got a 3” arm and the mount from KCK that I linked.

    My point is it’s not 14 pages on how to do a fender liner mod... it’s 14 pages on how to accurately and consistently trim the bumper covers

    When have you ever seen anything done by a dealer that was accurate or consistent let alone both at the same time?

    Well, trimming the bumper covers is Step 4 (A-O) in the TSB.

    You seem to be negating Step 3 (A-G) for some reason.....the part where you push the fender liner forward and drill new holes.

    Put them together and you have.........THE FENDER LINER MOD :)

    You seem to think all 14 pages of that = fender liner mod, it doesn’t. The fender liner mod itself does not require cutting the bumper. This TSB for cutting the bumper is not the same thing as the fender liner mod. You can do the fender liner mod on all 5th gens, this TSB for trimming the bumper doesn’t apply to all 5th gems.

    Fender liner mod doesn't require cutting the bumper? What? The tires rub the bumper, you move the liner and trim the bumper. That's the whole point!

    Ran the wiring through a relay - Probably overkill..I could have ran it directly from the 5 amp add a fuse and the 6 feet of so of 18 gauge wire would have handled it just fine but I had the relay already so what the heck.

    Also, I forgot what a PITA running a wire through the firewall grommet is...

    You’re combining 2 modifications into the fender liner mod.

    Fender LINER mod, is modifying the fender LINER as people have been doing since the 5th gen came out, long before cutting the BUMPER became a thing.

    Yeaaahhhhhhh not so much. There is zero modification to the liner itself. Zero cutting of the liner. The liner is moved forward out of the way, the exposed lip of the bumper is then trimmed off. This is extremely simple to understand and works every single time.

    I didn’t say you cut the liner. The modification to the liner is pulling it forward, making new holes, and bolting it back in. That is the fender liner mod. People have been doing that fender liner mod since the pre facelift 5th gen came out.

    The bumper trimming came out years later when they changed the bumper.

    The fender liner mod is done as a part of the bumper trimming modification, but bumper trimming modification is not part of the fender liner mod.

    @Backwoods ...please don't buy a welder until you do the classes. You will know what you want after that. I wish I had some gi bill left. It was so nice not footing that school bill. I used all of mine. Although I suppose I paid for it in other ways;)

    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.
    I love some of those patches/badges. Mostly the firearms related ones. Good stuff!
