you forgot to add when removing the black cover, theres a bits and pieces of the plastic you need to move around before it comes off. The ends of the cover has flaps that slots into places.

Was there a piece that you had to totally remove on the drivers side? Or else the cover will not close once the strut has been installed.

I installed my Ultra Racing bar last night ^.^

Correct. There are separate rubber bits you gotta put back. However, it's very easy to do. I pretty much followed these steps and no dramas.

Correct again. there was a piece of plastic that you had to totally remove as the strut bar blocked it's previous spot. Once again, no dramas. All ya gotta do it get a phillips head (x) screwdriver and take out two screws and then pull the plastic bit off. Once you've done that you're all sweet!

Thanks heaps for the write up, it was tremendously helpful!!!
