Of course, I did not have a skidplate on the car, so that step is missing. |
heh. sure it's a fun spring break. better than doing nothing, which is my other choice. it's hard to justify that new orleans trip when it means i don't eat until june.
but thanks for the link. that has pretty much just what i need. removing the whole front fascia is a little more ambitious than what i plan on doing, though. i'm hoping i can remove the whole snorkel/snowbox with just the fender liner off. others have done it that way - so you think it would be easier? sure access is more limited in wrangling the snowbox outta there, but its less screws and less times my mom comes out saying "you had better know how to put all that back together!"
and don't worry - i'm always safe when it comes to lifting the car up. i use the e-brake, chocks, the whole sha-bang. thats another reason why i didn't wanna work on the car with just the scissorjack holding it up.
