https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?orderId=8147771958998600 Got mine here for cheaper. Same thing. They come with the 3 tabs separate inserts that go on the tabs, but I just cut the tabs off flush, got rid of the inserts, added my own 3M tape, and slapped them on. I also painted them...

Replacing the bottom grill is easy. Have you taken the front bumper off yet? That'll give you an idea of what the internal damage may be. That you mention recharging the AC.....why? If it damaged something in that system you may need to get it repaired regardless. Hitting animals tend to be...

Never use an impact gun on those. Just asking for trouble :-\ I mean maybe for taking up the slack but I'd never use one on those for tightening/removing. Somebody had that same thing happen to them using an air-gun in a thread here....maybe 3 or so years ago?

That sucks. Was never a fan of the nuts on the ones I had on my '15, but they were necessary for it to work. What did you torque them down to? I can't remember what the size was, but you could try whacking on the next-lowest size socket (especially if you swap from English to metric or...

Thanks for the info. I'd thought about plastidipping them but I'd worry the constant contact would eventually rub it off. I'll check into those.

Dammit, just when I think I'm done doing things....Black door handles would look pretty good on the silver. Hmm.

You're still at fault for your own damage. You'd never be able to justify hitting somebody from behind unless you can prove they did something illegal or that it was something totally out of your control (and AFAIK insurance companies don't give much leeway and need irrevocable proof the person...

Sure it's not just the turbo? Also, is this a new sound or has it done it the entire time you've had the car?

Is this the only company that makes something like this? I'd like one (cheaper though) because I already installed a folding cupholder on the passenger side of the console. Does it fit snuggly, like will it move around if my arm is on it?

No, sorry. I'd never sold anything here and never edited the title. /derp, sorry.

They're not suggesting it to save your clutch. They're suggesting it because of the whiplash. Yes, rev match.

Considering the existing TSB with regards to these manual transmissions, I would hope we're protected if something like a shift fork breaks.

I wouldn't trust a dealership to do anything that's not warranty work, and that's only because they have to do it. I had an oil change done on my '15 at a dealership that builds and sells custom supercharged mustangs and their clowns forgot to tighten a filter one time and I was leaking oil. And...

Yes, I've done it multiple times. The only reason they tell you to take the wheels off is to get at the 2 10mm nuts holding the bumper behind the headlight. But it's much easier to get to those 2 bolts on each side from the top. And you don't need to jack the car up either. I leave the belly pan...

Heh no worries, it's a common term for MGW shifters notating throw reduction.
