Re: ECT?
Thanks HKC, I can't wait till I get it painted.
As for the platic bolts, I believe there were only 4 on the front. They were just under the hood in front of the latch. There was also one bolt behind each of the headlamps, and of course bolts just inside the wheel wells. (6 fasteners all together)
On the back there were four on top, four down below, (that were solidified in there) and two bolts a side behind the lining in the trunk/hatch, (that I broke due to rust) and the bolts inside the wheel well. (14 fasteners all together)
There are more plastic ones under the rear bumper. They are holding a metal piece onto the chassis that held the stock bumper in place. There is no movement with the Zefiro Rear and It comes nowhere near that piece so I just left it. As I go on I'll prolly take that off, bringing the rear fasteners total to 18.
Hence the back was a real PITA. Just to give you a measure, try and get at the bottom of the plastic fasteners next time to go out to your car. If you ever take your stock rear off, I suggest starting from the bottom and going up, rather than from the top, down.
Hope that answers your question.

Re: Happy Halloween bitches!!!
Im going to be changing my front bumper next weekend and replacing it with another stock bumper. Will I need to reuse these fastners or can I just go buy some nuts and bolts and replace them?

Re: Powder Coating ???'s
Just reuse them. The ones on the front bumper are easy. I used a screwdriver for them (I didn't know how they worked at first) don't push down to heavily cause they'll just pop back in, just give enough pressure to pull it out. You can actually get at them with your hands if you remove your headlights.

Re: lsd
Erebuni is CRAP. and all of "thier" kits are copies.
I have only heard of one person getting a good fitting item from them. and it took them close to a year to deliver.
