Well the parts are plentiful trust me. And the aftermarket parts look real good on them. Ate you planning to keep the white?

oh i know like i said 3-4 inch trimming with maybe a 1 inch spacer to push the bumper forward to help clear it and im gunna put a rubber strip where i cut the bumper to prevent the "just in case" of the tire hitting there and cutting up the tire

I have the same tires and very similar rims, I believe my front end has a levelling kit, I then spaced the bumper 1/4" and trimmed a little piece off and it doesn't hit the bumper anymore.
