Hey all I feel like a kid in a candy store, or a really really fat kid sittin in front of a huge ass cake. Well now to the point this is all because I just got my new wheels and tires installed and I need some advice from those of you with similar setups with what else I might need to do. First my setup is as follows I have an '07 2dr black Rubi soft top, I have the 2.5" teraflex coil lift, and I have completed a fender flare trim using Red's great write-up, and finally today I got my XD series 17X9 matte black rims with 35x12.50x17 nitto trail grapplers. It looks amazing all blacked out but I have a few important questions.
First: the rear pinch seams, where they come to the point kinda scare me being sharp looking so should I bend them back(I think I should), any advice on the best way to do this and if possible some pictures or instructions on how, what, and where would help alot.
Second: the front bumper doesn't have any clearance issues now but disconnected and at full flex could possible have some rubbing issues, so should I trim just to be safe or not. (I know how to do this just want some opinions)
Third: anything else that I might not be thinking about that could potentially be a problem or need some attention.
Thanks in advance, any input would help, and I do have pictures but I do not know how to post them so if anyone has an easy way to instruct me on doing that would be awesome too cause you really do need to see just how sweet this jeep looks and just how huge the smile on my face is.

The rear tires move up and back a bit, shouldn't be an issue with 35's. But won't hurt anything to bend them back.

Disconnect and go flex to check the front bumper. I like to stubby look, so I say go for the chop regardless of it rubbing.

A few forums up is the 'forum support' area. The top couple of stickies are about how to post pics.

 

Many guys have taken a sawzall and cut it, and applied sealant in the crack. Taking a hammer is effective but doesn't look that great. You can search "cutting your pinch seams.

 

If it is a stock front bumper and it rubs it won’t hurt anything because it is just a hollow plastic tube. Let it rub if it reaches. I doubt it will.

 

You have nailed the issues you will have with that setup, do the pinch seams and the front bumper, but also look at the BRAKE LINES when your flexed. I extended mine they didn't break but were streched a little tight for my comfort zone.

 

show em off!

 

Im gonna try to post a picture just beware this will be my first attempt ever and Im not feeling really confident.
