Hey everyone, I'm from Wisconsin and I feel that this might be the best way to start my posting history, I drive a 2007 yaris 4dr sedan and have a few questions. I'm not very automobile savvy but im wanting to learn and i ahve a couple of problems with my car if any ones willing to help let me know thanks abunch.

problems, the wheelwell scrapes my front wheel and the plastic gaurd under the car is loose and a peice is scrapping the ground, the holes where you secure it to the bumper are almost all ripped...any suggestions?

re drill holes and attach with some fender washers and small bolts.

is the car lowered? or did snow do this damage?

Damn snow, did you guys get hit really hard? We barely got a few inches the other day here in st cloud mn, i just bought mine right before the storms, and now its lookin pretty ugly. This bus drove by and pretty much covered mine in crap. I plan on washing often...

I have to get a new fender liner because the snow ripped mine out. Winters in Wisconsin suck ass.

How many miles do you have? Is it still under warranty? (nudge nudge)

pretty sure wrecking your own fender guard isnt something covered by warranty
