you bastard, you had air tools, :envy: i did it with the good ol hand tools. And no you gotta use the factor busings with the top when u install the kit. Or you could try to find some aftermarket ones.

I think you can use aftermarket bushings instead of re-using the OEM ones...i'm thinking i should've done that cuz after driving around, i'm hearing a squeeking noise that seems to be coming from those bushings...

sorry to make you jealous dood...guess it doesn't help that my father's a mechanic at Nissan who used to work at Honda as well

Perhaps they're different color variations. If you go to the official Skunk2 website it shows them being red in color.

My Skunk2 camber kit is red and I got it from Nopi. Red is the only color I've seen them in.

hmmmm..didn't know they made them in black, i got them at Garage 5 (a local shop in Vancouver---Olympics!!!) for just over $300CAD. The black ones are pictured with the bushings and mount as well...i only got the arms...wonder if it's a different model?

btw, your sig has a typo...

yah, i was kinda worried about that too cuz there's only four 5millimeter Allen bolts holding it...it was pretty tight, but i didn't want to tighten them to hell for fear of stripping them...
