Yep! I wouldn't have been upset as long as things were taken care of. I would have been ok but now I have to take care of it myself at my own expense

If you woulda parked it right my white truck wouldn't have hit it.....

t_g_farrell · 09-21-2015, 12:28 PM

Ouch! I always park in end spaces, at the far end from the store. Keeps the goofs from
making you a target.

FC Zach · 09-21-2015, 11:49 PM

I do that at Wal Mart on the rare event I'm there but I guess I should practice this everywhere.

FC Zach · 09-21-2015, 11:57 PM

I removed the bumper this morning and gave it to a painter, should have it back by end of this week

I would swear that the scumbags do it on purpose. Take an old beater into the jungle of the WalMart parking lot on payday and not a scratch. Take a nice car with shiny paint and you will be lucky if it is still able to be towed. They are evidently illiterate in addition to being utter incompetents behind the wheel, because the only note you will receive is one cussing you out for being in their way.

... in broken English of course.

Sad looking car

Johnny_K · 09-23-2015, 08:30 AM

srory about the bumper, who's painting it?

FC Zach · 09-23-2015, 11:22 AM

A friend of mine that does refinishing and detailing.

FC Zach · 11-07-2015, 02:58 AM

Car is back to normal, buddy did an outstanding job.

Now that the car is tuned and I shouldn't have to worry with removing/replacing the plugs anytime in the near future, I finally got around to installing Rice Racing's COP kit. Because my engine isn't an REW I had to make my own mount since S4 & S5 engines don't have the M6x1.0 mount casted into the center iron. I also had to remove some material on the coil side of the adapters to achieve a secure fit on the coil terminals, without doing so the adapter would not click into place.

Here's the test fit after modifying the adapters to accept my coils.

My homemade mount that works surprisingly well! It reaches up from the front stud/nut on the L/S engine mount with a 6x1.0mm threaded hole up top to secure the coil mount. I may fab up a steel version but that may not be necessary.
