You going to post some before and after pics of the body mount chop?
The first chop of the "body mount" is done and it looks like everyone else's chops with the welded piece/painted covering the chop. If I hadn't removed that I would have rubbing issues there -- but I don't.

The "second chop" will go down after the new aluminium UCA's are installed because they do move the position of the wheel slightly. That will change the position of the tire to the body and no need to chop until it's "where it will be". I'll post before and afters on that one. Essentially the plastic crap at the rear of the front wheel well (why is it there in the first place??) must go because that's where it's rubbing. I think that will do it but if we need to be more aggressive, we will be. That's one thing that Jason Demello is not shy about (aggressive modification to suit the purpose).
