Removing Files after Successful Extraction unrar rm shopt globstar

shopt -s globstar for f in **/*.rar; do dir=dirname "$f"; unrar e "$f" "$dir" && rm -frv "${f::-2}*"; done From echoing out testing the rm command, the file is the correct path. I don't receive any errors about an incorrect path or anything. I know there are other methods to use find, but that would be pointless and use extra cpu cycles this should be working from everything I found. Any ideas on how to use the rm command properly?
