'the screw mod'
« on: May 08, 2009, 06:48:25 pm »
was just reading another thread on here and as my car has around a 70 mm drop at the front it scrubs when cornering at speed.

just wondering what this so called "screw mod" is and how do i do it?

cheers very much, dan  :happy2:

On the front arch liners there is a screw holding it at the top, if you remove the screw and then tuck the liner the other side of the plate the  screw previously going through.

Let me know if you need the ETKA diagram to help explain  :happy2:

Google mkv fender mod and you will see it.  I did this last monday and also pushed metal part up a little to.  Makes all the difference.
