You will have to remove your OEM lip for this. It's not hard to remove the OEM lip anyways. Just 5 10mm bolts and the 2 screws on each side.

Long Beach. The bracket they give you is tricky to mount. It uses one of the original bolt holes. However you have to bend it from being a "7 L" into a Z shape. Fitment isn't perfect but it's still cheap and plastic. Scraped it already getting off the driveway lol. Can't wait to paint it and get it done with.

Good job! Now you need to tippy-toe on every incline and speed bump so you don't leave any of that paint behind...

Lots of work

Okay so today I changed the oil, Used Valvo Syn 5-20 w/mobil 1 filter, changed the dreaded rear drum brakes (that darn clip always gives me problems), The fit now has 100,000 miles and running strong!! Planned next month maintenance will be a fresh set of Denso SKJ20DR-M13 (expensive), and 2nd Tranny fluid change.

Get those Denso's on Amazon, they are like $11/piece at the moment.


I went with NGK and changed out mine tonight after work. Seemed to go well and wasn't throwing CELs afterward so we'll see
2nd transmission fluid change will be Tuesday when my fluid arrives.

At 109,000 miles so far...
