Re: finally dropped»Updated 4-14-12» TheBax's FBP 1999 Sedan 5MT

I'm seriously just thinking about getting the 962s, but painting the inside of it a different color so it doesn't look like the 2 or 3 other black 6thgens here with the gold ones. :lawl:

:poke:

:slap:

Let me just say I'm kicking myself in the *** for not doing it sooner, haha.
Those oem endlinks gave me hell though trying to take them off, it's so damn cramped in there behind the coilovers.

Those things are worthless anyway. It's nearly impossible not to slaughter them when removing.

Re: »Updated 5-14-12» TheBax's FBP 1999 Sedan 5MT

I actually tried to tackle this project a week before finals, and when the allen key hole stripped with the nut halfway off I just gave up. I didn't have the time to mess with it then. But I looked into it a little and saw pics of how it's just a ball in a plastic housing, i had a really good idea on how to destroy it and get it off haha.
I just figured since I'm putting on the strut bar I might as well do this too and get it all done in one day.

Aren't you going to get the progress bar?
