Oh ok it sits pretty nice. And this is kinda a dumb question, but I really wanna buy these 1pc's but you have to take the bumper off, and i've never been able to get the bumper off. I know u gotta take off the side screws by the wheels, and the bumper lights and the ones on the bottom, but do u gotta take off the top 3 bolts under the hood? cuz those are stripped on mine. Thanks.

hey does anyone have the Progress Series II coilover set up on their car? ive been thinking about this for a couple weeks, and they seem to be a good price for intro/DD suspension. I currently have tokico HP with blues, and that didnt drop my car at all..
Oh and another update, i tried to install the rubber gaskets that stop the passenger leak, but it looked really hard to do..so for the winter im just gonna get a cover

I asked if you could post up pictures of your stripped bolts. I doubt that you have to take those bolts off, when I installed my headlights, there were no need for that. Here's a tutorial on how you could take your bumper off. http://g2ic.com/tegtips/lighting/26.html
Hope this helps

Wow, I just read your post and checked the list and there I was. Thanks Dee A Nine
Nice job on that VC. I want to paint mine too. I just don't have the time.

AAAAhh..I'm so pissed. I had recently replaced my V.C. mounting studs, and noticed something odd when I re-tightened. They seemed to not tighten down with a good resistance, and thought nothing of it until I saw oil seeping from the V.C. I thought that it was the STONE gasket as I noticed when I replaced the studs it was cracking. SO I ordered an oem gasket this time and re did the Honda Bond layer as well. Well of course I just left out the juicy part. When I tried to remove the nuts from the V.C. the 2 front one wouldn't come off, but the whole stud was undwinding from the head...this is not good I thought. When I removed everything I noticed that the threads were all munched and destroyed and now figured I'm screwed. SO now I am officially part of the Cross Thread gang. I must have done that when I reseated them before. and not only to add insult to injury I had broken off one of the studs when I went to retighten back side. I know not to use too much torque, but I'm just not sure what the hell is going on.. So now the front threaded area I used one of my older studs along with some JB WELD
so now that has to cure along with everything else. Minor problems but I hope this doesn't come back to bite me later.
Sorry for the long read.

um, daaamn dude! instead of jb weld though, you shoulda used a tap and dye kit to re-thread the front ones and for the back, go get an e-z-out (or screw extractor, some places call them dif. things) and read the directions and you should be able to pull out the broken ones....
