I wouldn't be able to tell you how much I trimmed.

I used chalk to cover suspect areas in the wheel well. Then I'd reverse and see if I heard anything rubbing. Then I'd check to see where the chalk rubbed off. I did this until I had enough clearance.

Took about an hour start to finish. I didn't want to cut any more than I had to so I took my time.

No "major" plastic had to be cut (i.e nothing with a retaining clip had to be cut off).

I had to trim some plastic (easy task with a Dremel).

What amount of "rake" do you have now with that level and rear block? any idea how much actual lift you got in the front, some levels say 2.5 and guys are only getting 2.25.

what tint did you go with on the front?

how easy were the rear wheel well liners to install?

is that westheimer lakes? used to live there (in the north section)

You didn't have any rubbing on the crash bars?
