It should be fairly easy. On mine I just sprayed some dish soap on the rubber holders and then used pliers to get a part of it of and then used my hands for the rest. The 14mm nuts/bolts are straightforward, just be careful not to strip them.

You have to nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure...

Buy wd40 and some gloves and you can have it done within an hour !

Dont listen to these guys. They are making it sound way too easy..
You will definitely need an acetylene torch and probably 3 friends and a whole afternoon. You'll have to torch the whole rear exhaust and then grind it off with a cutting wheel. Make sure you avoid all the vital sensor wires that are mounted on either side of where you will need to cut. If you cut one --- well then you'll have to get the car towed...

It honestly helps to just lift the engine out before you attempt all this...

Got blasted into the car in front of me at a red light by an otherwise nice but potentially entirely blind man... guess it's time for new bumpers lol

EDIT: if they can't wizard my front bumper back to life, it's carbon splitter time!

Also ordered some more parts to hack together a water/oil cooler next month.

Removed my under panel today and cleaned the crap out of it. It went from black to silver!

Bought this little goodie today.

Got me some brakes today. Researched and found this is a good compromise for light track and street DD use. Plus they're made in Japan. Front's for now but rear's will be ordered tomorrow.
