Yeah the ducktail came with 3M, its really tough. Tried pulling it off - just moved the car heaps lol.

I went to a shop to get the paint mixed properly but used a rattle can to apply it, first time though. Still need to polish it cause the clear coat is acrylic :(

Looks good from the photos mate.

I have the modulo spoiler, was wondering if i replace it with the ducktail lip, would it cover the holes in the boot?

Thanks man, trust me it doesn't look good if you look closely - a lot of imperfections, i've dropped it heaps lol. Got lots of work to do with it, I'm pretty sure it'll cover it up. Just refer to my picture and see if theres any correlation :D If you need the ducktail spoiler I can link you to the ppl I bought it from. They did a really good job with the paint work and the delivery is super quick.

hey guys if im getting some skunk2 cams, should i install the skunk2 valve springs and retainers too? or would i be fine without them? ive been reading up on 8thgen and most people seem to have been running everything else stock when they install custom cams =/..

pm sent

in the next week or 2.

I know I can install them in my backyard with my mate, but in terms of adjusting them etc - would i be better just getting a shop to do it? and then they can set them and wheel align etc.

I've never adjsuted the setting on coilovers before.

got the tools to do it? ever done it before? i seem to remember people having troubles with knuckles or something popping out etc..
paying a shop $200 to install and lower is great piece of mind :thumbsup:

black8th, how much are cams going to give u?

i might be getting coils in on wednesday so i'll try to take a lot of pics and let you know how the install goes :)

pretty easy to adjust height but obviously yeah take to shop for an alignmnet after. gl
