Sorry guys, it won't be until early next week till I bring back pics/results - my friend with the 07 has been pretty busy. I'm shooting/planning on meeting up with him Monday and if all goes well, I'll have pics up Monday night.

I stripped the hell out of one oft the nuts at the top of the strut mount. A buddy of mine was able to loosen it by applying some heat from a torch.

Then I put a small barbell between the strut bar and the engine cover to leverage the bar into place and put the bolt in. I got the bar in place but then I couldn't get the barbell out. Scratched the hell out of the engine cover

Yeah, I read the install instructions afterwards. One of those "man" things. More of a reflection of the installer than the product.

Damn, where have I been? Bump for an awesome product for a great price

Richie, is there any chance that this could be polished in black? Just curious...
