Advise for trimming bumper

[Rushingman]

I have 35s, and I have done the majority of the trimming needed for me to drive in a Daily basis.
However, I still rub every once and awhile on the rear bumper.
So my question is: does anyone have any tips for me to trim my rear bumper on my own?

What kind of lift are you running??? When are you rubbing the bumper?

To fit my 33s, I had to completely remove my rear mud flap, I don't know if you are running them or not.

For me to fit my 35s without rub in the rear I had to remove the mudflaps, then cut the bumper cover back ~3/4". Followed that by folding/flatening the huge pinchweld back there. However I do have a 1" bodylift I don't know if you do or not. I'll see if I have any picks of the rear handy. If I don't I'll take some later today.

Sorry for not giving my info in the first place.
Its a toytec boss lift w/ 1 in body lift.
I rub in the rear when i got up certain inclines at an angle, as far as i know i only rub on the bumper.
And i think i only need to trim a little bit, but i've never trimmed anything on a vehicle before.

This is what it looks like with the rear tire stuffed in the fender. You can hear the bumper when I back up

I showed you last night but I'll post as well.

Used a dremel with a cutting disk. Once cut I took a sanding block and 120 grit and sanded any waves out and smoothed the edges.

i still need to clean mine up, its kinda ragged on the edges, and the body damage doesnt help but ill get to it eventually. i also still gotta clearance my front drivers firewall too. only place i rub still.
