in the process of a dryfit on my bodykit... i got my back bumper on easy... and looking good but my front bumper is puzzling me.
is goes on but the drivers side wheel scrubs on the bumper when the wheel is turned.
but there is loads of room to play with on the passengers side.
it the combat kit 2 wide arch for a C and i have got 17's
also get quite a bit of scrubbage on the rear.
any help would be very much appreciated.

welcome to the world of fibreglass bumpers. they are always a crap fit and you have to spend hours cutting bits off to make them fit on.

how low is it? wouldnt have thought u would get much scrubbing on a Corsa C with 17s unless its low. maybe need to trim bumpers a bit, roll wheelarches etc. sure they r ET45s? not bin in a crash has it?

i did have fibreglass bumpers, they pissed me off though, only needed to knock them a little bit of they craze, plus i spent hours fitting a delta 1 bumper and i still wasnt happy. gone to good old plastic kit now, much better.

hmmmm thats kinda weird cause on my corsa b it went on without any problems. the bodyshop actually cut the bumper to make it sit more back so it'd be flush under the headlight lights and i still don't get any scrubbing. plus my wheels offset are et37 and it's lowered 40mm

its probably down to factory tolerance differences from car to car.... thats all i can think of anyway cos some people seem to complain about scrubbing with ET45 wheels and only lowered 30mm
