I destroyed it to be quite honest man. Get a blower and you will see him in your rearview mirror. Of course if he mods that will make it closer but stock they have no chance.

So today I finally got around to installing my toe rods. I also got my replacement hood struts from MRT and to be honest they still don't fit properly, so I think some Redlines are in my future. After we finished the install I gave her a good bath.

Just in case I didn't mention it, he drove a manual and I'm driving an auto. Good luck with your car and whatever setup you choose, it's a blast.

I just noticed your MRT hood struts fit as poorly as mine. And also damaged your battery cover panel too. While your hood is closed, check the gap between the hood and fender on the passnger side. I bet it has the hood jacked up 1/4" higher than the fender.



I had to cut a relief in my panel so the hood would close properly. I think MRT should refund our money!! Or atleast pay for a new panel.

You are correct about the fitment being off. It has been off since the first pair that I bought from them.
