It is and it isnt. I couldnt tell you exactly why. But Im going to state, the guys that are working on my car have a very very good reason and there isnt a question about it. Im lucky as hell they will even grace a Honda.

RE: Project HCF
I got a solid answer from the mechs:
"Because on your car it involves removing the entire front sub frame, the entire suspension, etc. It would be excessively difficult to drop it. Especially with the turbo. Remember, we wanted to drop it then realized it was a bad idea and it would be a pita, you'd need an alignment, etc. And... the factory shop manual says to lift it and not to drop it"

Even if it was harder to lift it, who cares if someone else is doing the work lol. Remmy has to be just as stoaked to get his car back as I am.

After threatening the 'tards that sold me the fog lights, they actually are sending me another set!

If these too are broken when they get here... Remmy is going on a shooting spree.
