I can't wait for my D2s get here, though the camber kit hasn't shipped yet which sucks.

Also does anyone have any advice to get my corners out? The screw on the driver's side is stripped and the clip is broken. I can't take the bumper off without getting the corners out first.

hmm i did two things...you can drill into the screw til it cracks and should come loose, or just try ripping the corner out by fucking with it, pushing in on the side that comes to a point where its clipped in. sometimes that works. id just drill the screw and hope it breaks the right way, where you can get it out.

Alright I'll give that a shot, thanks. I don't care about damaging the lens (going back to amber), but I don't wanna damage the bumper by ripping the corner right out.

nod: This is what i've been preachin for years bro, those parts get nasty under there, especially for us non-cali people that brave crappy weather. I still wanna replace my control arms, but I've done everything else on that list

Yeah finally having to deal with it myself made me realize how bad that shit was. I'd like to do it all at once though.

im pretty sure thats gonna rub, 17x8 +30 is pretty aggressive for someone who is slammed.
but thats pretty expensive for how beat up the wheels are.

Well, not going to be done today after all. My friend was supposed to come down and help me out. Never showed up and he shut his phone off. I guess I shouldn't have been excited to get it done after all.

Haha yeah, I know artbran. Didn't want to call and bother him about it at the last minute though. Asking someone to do suspension is like asking someone to move and you have a really heavy couch that needs to be moved down 20 flights of steps - notice is required.
