Officially rubbed through my fender liners

I don't know what everyone is complaining about. I drove pretty slammed for about a month or so and all the rubbing went away (unless I hit a slight dip in the road). Mine rubbed driving straight without even hitting anything or turning. I did have to roll and pull my front fenders and relocate the front bumper tab. But I just left the fender liner as is, didn't do a thing. I then cut out loose plastic pieces that were hitting the tire from the fender liner, now it's all good.
My only problem is I rub on actual fenders when I turn, but it doesn't bother me too much... it's all part of the game.

I think most are asking about a DIY for the metal bumper bracket and not how to remove the liners...I am going to take my front bumper off tonight and then see if I can fabricate a new bracket out of round bar to completely bypass the bracket chewing up the tires...

^^ that definitely helps most with the metal rubbing on the outer edge of the front tires, but does not show the metal bracket in all it's tire blocking glory...
I have the additional issue of this bracket keeping me from lowering the car more because my setup is so aggressive that the tire now sits on the bracket when I air down, so I have the idea of creating a new "bracket" out of round bar that allows the tire to have full clearance but will still hold the corner of the bumper flush against the fender.
