installing front inner guard

[stoodamire]

Hey guys and girls

would anyone here possible explain or have a tutorial on how to install the front inner guard on the passenger side...because my car is missing 1..

also would it be dangerous not to have one on for now...


thanks

Get the plastic gaurd from wreckers or something.
And just screw them on, there are about 5 or so of the other plastic type screw which can be pulled out, and easily put back in without a screw driver.

so i'd have to source out screws as well....

but the inner guard goes all the way down to the front bar...how does that screw in without having to remove anything...

the inner splashguard for the wheel wells will connect up to the front splashguard that attached to the lower radiator support.

From memorry there are two behind the wheel, 4 allong the outer edge of the guard, on the firewall side, 2 screwws linking to the lip, and 2 that join it to the middle splashguard

take a bit of time but when you do it once you'll know!

good luck dude

Thanks Zilli!

Are the Front, middle and inner splashguard in 1 piece? Would i be able to get 1 from Honda parts or would i have to source 1 from wreckers?

Cheers!

They are in seperate pieces. Yes you can order from honda. About $120 from memory for the splash guard that goes under the arches to the front bar is what I got quoted recently.

I just bought one side for my car from a forum member, but he said when he was sourcing them he found it very hard to find from the wreckers.

Anyone know where i can find some for a dc2r? full set? ; ; i bought a crappy VTIR one and it doesn't fit properly. WHeel grinds when i do a full lock. *sigh* VTIRs -_-;;

[Zilli]

i dont get it mate, theey should be the same general design. There might me slight differences in the moulding and the way it looks, but there is nothing different in the chassis so you must have out something in thee wrong place fufu

[frahmy]

yeah they should be the same, fufu..just double check all the plastic screws are in the right place and pushed in properly.
there is nothin wrong with a vtir..after all u are sourcing parts from it haha

stoodamire u wont have to remove the front bar to install it, just jack the car up(make sure u use stands :thumbsup:) and you should be able to reach everything.
