Rear AP fitting and splash guard
I'm in the process of fitting the rear AP kit to my car to match the front. The rear disks are in great shape so I'm retaining them.
What is the easiest way to cut down the splash guard to allow the rear calipers to fit? I'm trying to work out if I can do it with a Dremel or not, to avoid having to remove the disk. Not sure if a Dremel can cut it because the guard does look quite substantial... What does everybody else do? |

Not sure what everyone else does not had to fit rear ap,s but a fein multi master has a lot more juice than a dremal with a better range of attachments I think most hire shops stock them.

In the end I used an angle grinder.
Perfect finish, done in minutes. Easy! |
