Exclamation Rear Bumper Bracket

My question is do you guys remove the entire bracket? or just the part that i outlined in red?







I also wanted to upload some pictures of the rear bumper bracket because i couldn't find it anywhere on this forum.

Bumper bracket located under here.

Did you try searching the forum? Found this with the exact same thread title https://www.myg37.com/forums/g37-cou...r-bracket.html
I'm assuming you're trying to get more clearance for your wheels.
Many have just just bent the tab up depending on how much space you need while others on the more extreme just cut it off completely. Whatever you do you have to also include the tab bolted area as well and trim the fender liner.

I did search and I saw that thread already, but they didn't have any good pictures. I'm not sure if I want to remove the entire bracket or just the part outlined in red

This was in the thread and it looks exactly like what you were asking.

This shows the bolt/screw section cut off.

This shows the section you are asking about already cut out.

Depends on how low you are and the offset of your wheels. Cut it as close to the bolt and see if there is any rubbing.
