I went with just 2 and cut off the base for a cleaner look

Just ordered my amuse kit in carbon today! Now the unbearable waiting period!

How are other amuse owners changing their oil? I can't jack up my car without having to remove the sideskirts. Just trying to get ideas since I can't fit my jack under the car even with the home made wooden ramps (not high enough).

Its a hot mess with these skirts. You need two low profile jacks from harbor freight and four stands to do it right or take it to a local shop like I do. Just pay for $15 labor and disposal fee. I bring my own oil, filter, and gasket.

i roll up on some wood. jack it up w more wood touching the jack and the frame, then put the jack stand. i then jack up the other side and the same way to level it out. then i have to take off the whole front bumper to get to the oil filter (oil filter relocation kit). it sucks.

I take mine to service centers with underground access. I didn't wanna deal with low ramps and stacking wood.

Where do you go? the place I go to will charge way more than $15. They say it's annoying to take off the front bumper so they'd have to charge me more

man it requires a lot of work and equipments just to get the car up...considering cutting out the access hole so I can change oil w/o having to remove the bumper each time

I'm assuming your front bumper doesn't need to be removed for oil changes?

cooltoy · 07-16-2014, 01:30 PM

Did you cut a larger access opening during install?

FairladyZ10PG · 07-16-2014, 01:42 PM

naw didn't need to at first so I decided not to
it's become extremely more difficult since getting the side skirts

There's a place out here in Newhall, CA that I go to for all my cars and they take care of me with the Z. They run a car wash along with their pit for oil changes. Despite the pit of they still want me on planks to make sure.

A clean cut out with a nice cover is all you nee.
