agreed.
yea i got a new manta for the front and put it on myself. the first one i made the mistake of doing half at a time, so the backing on half of it stuck when it got wet. this time i took the backing off all at once and put it on.


is there a guide for the tcs relocation? i keep hearing about that?

unbolt tcs from fenderwell. unbolt pcm and remove from engine bay. put tcs behind where pcm mounts, reinstall pcm. i think you have to extend the tcs wires if im not mistaken but its only 2 wires. very easy free mod and makes the engine bay look much much better
