well i fitted the small h style rig to car today, and its very very snug on the bottom of back bumper, is this normal? as in i think if i took bumper off, it wouldnt go back on!!

how do i over come this? put spacers in at the 4 bolts at the back??

cantremeber how much thread is left in the bolts though

Spacers will only weaken it so avoid them if possible. Do you often have to take your bumper off?
