I am just curious how heavy are these residues that they always sit on the bottom of the tank and can only be picked up when the tank is very low? Seems to me with all the vibration, bouncing around, turning left and right that they would be getting mixed up into the fuel no matter what the level is.
The residue must be really heavy to stay stuck at the bottom of the tank and only lighten enough to rise up to the level of the fuel pick-up when the tank gets low.
Those are some magical residues.

Metal or sediments are heavier than fuel right? So as long as tank remains relatively full its not really a prob, but when you drive it with your fuel light on you risk some of that residue contaminating your fuel line. Off topic. Take itto the shotstorm thread

I feel like this dude is @zik reincarnated. Blindly trying to shove misinformation (remember how his car had a Tacoma(?) engine, but the pictures he took clearly showed an FA20?) down other's throats and not even having the courtesy to at least consider that others are right or at least admit to being a drunken fool.

The whole bumper is essentially supported from the top strip that also holds the hood seal. The fasteners all across the bottom loosely hold up that forward bottom plate. I don't know what it's called.

I've had mine off a couple times and reinstalled it with no issue. the trick is to install it so it loosely hangs off of the top fasteners. Do not tighten them.

Carefully pop the corners into the clips.

Loosely attach all the fasteners across the bottom.

While everything is still loose, grab the bottom of the bumper cover and lift. Notice the effect it has on the fit of the corner clips.

Tighten the top strip from the center outward while supporting the bottom. There's not much slop in those mounts but it makes a difference. That's the key.

The real fix for the bumper is to support it from the bottom using something along the line of those turnbuckles that I see on aftermarket splitters. @AznKirby, I bet your corner clips fit nicely with the way you mounted your splitter.
Yeah, I must say I haven't had any issues with bumper sag because my splitter is mounted to the chassis. I'm looking at doing something similar for my rear diffuser as well.

Good memory, Sir!

Not reincarnated. It is Zik/GTX. There can be no doubt about that. This time he just claims to be from Abu Dhabi instead of Dubai or Kuwat.

Have a nice day.
Please read other posts which mention your uncle is talking from his ass. K thanks, bye now.


Why do people ask questions if they are going to dispute and refuse to accept the answer that is provided to their question. I mean if your just gonna end up believing your pre-made bs explanation why ask for the answer, you aren't even going to listen to it when it is given to you... Wait are you guys just doing that so hopefully someone will say the same dumb shit and you can both live ever happily after since you were both able to solidify what you thought was correct even if it is very wrong.

Im not claiming to be from anywhere. My location says "outer space". But just for your info Dubai and Abu Dhabi are in the same country. And Kuwat is spelt Kuwait.

REad everyone else's post who actually has an idea of what they are talking about vs spewing random marketing material that coincidentally don't even speak of the same deposits you mention.


It's like saying eating chicken causes cancer but linking to a article that speaks about the cancer risk of a piece of pork left to rot for weeks. (I know that makes little sense, but I didn't feel the need to find a very suitable example for you since you obviously can't be bothered to do any more research on the subject than link the first google articles that come up from your search result (paid results might I add which closely resemble marketing material... wonder why)
