 It's not sitting flush. I know the alignment of the nose changed ever so slightly after the accident, so there's not a lot to do there. It will easily push into place, but it won't stay. Tacky tape didn't even keep it in place. So how can I get it to stay put, nice and flush. If I'd have thought about it I'd have had it cut and molded in while the body work was happening. *edit* Forgot to mention that I am going to pull it tomorrow and open the bolt holes up for a little bit of adjustment.

It's EXACTLY what I was thinking of doing on both sides. Would be a permanent solution and with the right hardware (stainless cap screw and speed nut) would look good too. QUOTE (808celica @ May 25, 2009 - 1:27 AM) dunno how the ss3 looks front underneath but could you widen the hole on the mounting tabs? maybe you can widen it and move the lip closer. I mentioned I was going to do that in my original post. Don't know how much it would help though. -------------------- |
