MS Body Kit Sideskirts worry me
I got the nose on my WB last night, looks great.
I'm worried about installing the side skirts myself and I'm thinking about paying Town North to do it while installing my MS Sway Bars on Monday. Am i nuts to do that? |
We installed Harry's side skirts on his WB....oh its fun...:D:
|
so its that a vote for diy or tn mazda?
|
depends on how much the dealer will charge.
|
89 x 2 hrs.
|
It is pretty easy if you follw directions well. It takes some drilling witch is hard to do to an 8 :D: trust me, I did it.
|
That depends.. Which one do you have?
A) The right tools, skills to use the tools, and patience. B) a lack of any one of the above and an extra $180 to spend. My theory is - what will it hurt to try? If you get stuck, undo it and pay someone else to finish. |
you could always just wait until the next shopday/burgers and beerfest. = )
|
If you think you can't do it then most likely you cant (murphy's law). Pay someone to do it if you got doubts about it. just my 2 cents.
|
If you dont mind driving to ft worth i would help you do it....
|
thats my worry is my ms suspension, its hard to lift it anymore.
|
I'm sure that if we all got together, we could getcha taken care of. :D:

Your not a true g until you get a low-profile jack
:) |
ooohhhh yeah!
|
just gonna have TN throw it on monday when they install the front and rear sways. MS suspension will finally be complete. I hope to make it out to the next time you guys get together to see what everyone else has done to their 8's.
|
man we could have save you a bunch a cash. we have done all that before.....oh well. Let us know how it all turns out, oh and you better post pics :D:
|
yeah, we are a pretty good install crew. We got the right tools, skills, and patience.
|
oh i believe you guys. But when stuff messes up down the road, i like to be like you guys installed it so fix it, and I don't want to have to do that with you. When I get the MS CAI (already ordered, just playing the waiting game) I might ask someone to come to my garage and help me. =) Maybe some of my ebay stuff will sell too. I need to clear out my garage.
|
unless the place you're having them put on at is super duper friendly I wouldn't count on them being very supportive if you have problems down the road, I know from past experience most dealerships/service depts. frown on any kind of custom stuff/mods whatever as it makes more work for them. (engine parts throw off codes, body parts get in the way etc.)
You really are better off having those done with some knowledgable owners, especially people who have put them on before. Your car might be given to some import hating newbie who half asses your parts just to get your car out of the way otherwise. It's your money and your car, if you really want to take a chance at some dumb ass screwing it up instead of taking advantage of free help then by all means go for it :bigok: |
Well i've heard good things about TN Mazda. They have gone above and beyond for me, the Parts' Guy Tom is great, Penny in Service seemed nice, I mean i'm open to some help, but i want to get them on ASAP and out of my garage. Plus as all of you know its freaking hot! :wallbash:
PS I noticed alot of you guys have aim - add ColtSwitch. If you guys think you can do it then i don't mine paying one of ya'll and i'll help or something. :yumyum: |
she's at the dealership, and i got a phat ass chevy malibu! =) i hope my clear corners come today. Stupid me ordering them from Japan.
|
cool, let us know how it turns out!
|
Clear corners came today, and i'm gonna try to hit the dealership later to get my car back. Getting a dell TV installed today so i'm playing the waiting game at the house.
I want to see the 8~! |
