Happened on my 1/4 sport.

It'll be rubbing off the anti rattle clip, remove that then file the part of the caliper that is catching.

So trim caliper down is better than a spacer?

In all honesty I would rather fit a spacer than to start grinding away at the caliper!

You don't really have to take much off.

Once your done give it a lick of paint and you wont notice it.
