   i think you have to remove and move the bracket to stop it scrubing!!!!!

   you can just cut it off but i found if i took the liner out and hammered the bracket down a bit this stopped it hitting metal and endangering your tyres.
   
   Now though i have no bumper bracket as i cut it off and alls fine
