    Sorry to hijack your thread but are these the same clips everyone mentions when people claim their car is rubbing or is this for the removal of the bumper? I'm more interested in the rubbing issues with the fender clips if anyone would like to elaborate on which those are. Thanks!

    There is one clip right at the top of the fender liner toward the outside edge. When lowered and running low ET (wheels or spacers) this is probably the first thing to rub when the suspension is compressed - removing it would buy you a bit. I'm just on stock sport suspension and "conservative" spacers. Maybe someone who knows more will chime in - thinking you would need to remove the stud/pin and not just the clip though...

    Would like to know if this is the same clip people remove to avoid rubbing.
