Rear tire rubbing, where to cut?

Can someone show me a picture of where you have to cut for larger rims. Everyone talks about a plastic square that you cut off cause it rubs yet I have no idea what they are talking about. Thanks

there should be a litte tab right where the bumpr connects to the fender, just look up there, and u should be able to catch it, if not i have a picture with it already cut off maybe u can tell what u need to trim from that....e-mail me at noleafclover74@aol.com and i'll hook u up w/ it if u need it. good luck. peace

Noleaf is exactly correct...where the rear bumper conects to the rear quarter panel there is like a plastic rectangle with a screw in it...you want to cut from the screw going towards the rear of the car, until it is completey off but leaving enough on so the screw is still holding the fender in place, you'll see what we mean when you look at it again.

i say line the wheel well arch with that yellow masking tape...wherever it gets blackened or riped, it's where you need to deal with. but more than likely, it's the small 1 inch wide section at the tip of the rear bumper. i have 18x7.5/42 offset with 225s and prokits, and i cut that *tab*.
