I think you don't know the spoiler I'm talking about. It's fine if you don't like it, but I'm talking about this one:

Dropzone coilovers are a plague on the MX-3 community! My first GS had em on when I bought it and they are total crap. They went in the dumpster immediately. Ricers like em because the drop so far, but they are so stiff that it's like riding a skateboard...except without the springiness of the board.

They were *almost* my 2nd mod, but just looking at them (not knowing anything about coilovers), I could tell they wouldn't work.

Umm why are you grinding on that fender without first masking the headlight so you don't damage it?

And say goodbye to your rotors, you also forgot to replace the lug nuts so the rotor will stay in place and not mess up the pads. :shrug:

Rotors are probably corrosion welded to the hubs...I needed an air hammer to get mine off.

Why are you so sure of your self? I dont like your negative reinforcement that is incorrect:] Maybe you dont have enough self control to trust yourself with a grinder to not do something like that! And the second statement you made.. I usually tap the lug nut bolt things (dont kno what there called) with a hammer to get it off.
