Omg!

Freaked a bit.


Ramp to lift too steep. Omg.

Moved it to rotary lift.


My heart is racing just thinking of tire monkeys changing rubber. Hopefully they are gentle with your rims.

Quick question for you guys: I'm about to buy some H&R spacers, 15mm DRS for the front and 20mm DRM for the back. Since they're used, is it safe to reuse the replacement stuffs for the fronts or should I get new ones? And if I need to, where should I get the new ones from? Studs aren't really something g I've messed with, so I don't really know much about them.

goodpm everyone!

clearbra install went well this am.

like my cloths pin assistant to hold the bra with backing?



bubbly mess...



finished!



this xpel ultimate is a HUGE improvement over the regular xpel ive dealt with in the past as far as being able to peel up without damage even when partially dried. usually dont want to do that cause it damages the film by turning white.

also VERY glossy.

As long as the studs aren't compromised, you should be fine. Mr. Gurney was nice enough to hook me up with some spacers, but he informed me that some of the studs had been cut down and recommended they not be used.

Great job mr. ken!

Question for you and anyone else who has experience with clear bra -

I've got 3M clear bra on the front of the car that was installed over six months ago.

When I go to cut the holes in my bumper for my Nismo brake ducts, are there any special precautions to take because of the clear bra?

Is there a real possibility of it lifting along the cut line?

I don't think there should be a problem, but i wanted to ask. Mrs. gurney in another storied driving action managed to brush a column in a parking garage with her CR-V. The clear bra was abraided and torn in some spots, but it didn't lift anywhere. I assume there will be no problem with me cutting mine.

Thoughts?

Hearing the Mrs experience I would think you should be fine the ducts will also over lap a little to right?
