yes i took it apart myself. Its very easy. I used a 45 star hex and then a 10mm. After you take all the bolts out. take a rubber mallet and hit it out.

They charged 175 just for the lip. But iwould have to take it apart. If you wanted them to take it out and then dip it. they charged 245. So i took it apart myself and saved some money.

No Hornda. Thats my set in 19's. My bro still has his and lookin for a buyer.
