    Re: kevinkyang's

    we dont have it twice, its just maths in ireland is impossible so if you dont do well and get the course you want you can go back and repeat your final year!

    Re: kevinkyang's

    well, i just realized how bad that accident was to the front of my ride. it seems as though it pushed back and down my radiator support. not good what so ever. :oops:

    [​IMG]

    also got the new grill too. and it didnt go in right either. the center support piece. thats when i noticed how awful it was. any advice?

    Hydraulic bottle jack horizontal against the firewall or other solid surface and
    a 2X4 or other solid object to fill the gap between the jack and the back of the
    crossmember that has been pushed back.

    See my beautiful picture for a better idea. This will push the bar back forward.
    [​IMG]

    To push the bar up place the jack on the ground under the middle of the cross
    member with a suitably sized piece of 2x4 to fill the gap.....

    I would repair the worst damage first.

    IE if the bar has been pushed down more than it has been pushed back I would push it
    back up first but maybe leave it 1/4'' lower than original and then push it forward to
    the correct position and then push it up the last 1/4".

    If it has been pushed back more than it has been pushed down I would push if forward
    first and leave it 1/4" back from its final position and then push it up to its final position
    and then finally forward again to fix the final 1/4"

    You may have to remove your radiator or if your lucky you can just remove the 2 top
    tabs and pull it up out of its sockets on the bottom and then push the bottom of the
    rad towards the back of the car so it clears the sockets at the bottom and then lower
    the rad so you can get your horizontal 2x4 on the cross member.
