Do not try to bend the turn signal arm in place... you're likely to
break the switch. I was able to remove mine and gently bend (no heating)
near the base to clear the wheel. Since I didn't go too radical with the
angle, the existing chrome played along... and since it was near the
base, it really wouldn't show anyway.
My rubbing wasn't too bad... I didn't try to fix.
