If seen lower car's than mine, i won't raise my coils, cause wheel gap isn't my cup of tea

any ideas?

its been covered, go to hardware store and buy primer spray (anti rust) or 3m under body coating. which ever you prefer, and heat gun if u wish

find biggest hammer possible, jack up car, take wheels off (its on both sides) and then heat it and smash that thing flat. it takes a while, like 30 minutes, to get it nice and flat. once your dont, sand it down and spray primer or undercoat. done and done. tuck your harness if you havent already

9x18....WOW that's a seriously wide wheel. on the real, yes, you have to smash it up so it clears, if you haven't done a wire tuck yet, i suggest you also do that.

Cut and reweld that seam, or pound it flat. Simple.

try and have a shop reweld it man, cause when you pound it it separates a bit, or when your done try to pinch it all back together. ill see if i can take a picture of mine, but you wont see much since its all covered in undercoating. if you need any help pm me, im more than happy to help another person out
