Calling them now. Got stuck on the downpipe install. I realized it's a huge pain without the lift.

I think I might have to invest in a lift in my garage. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...FQnhQgod6WwADw

Its a bit of a pain.. Take your time, loosen up the mid section of your exhaust if aftermarket. Loosen or remove aluminum skid plate. I used a dab of exhaust putty (you could use grease, anti-seize, RTV) on the top sides of the gaskets so once i got them on the DP they stayed without having to hold them.
Definitely not the easiest install but doable from jack stands. PM if you have other problems...Make sure to get new donut gaskets if the DP's didn't come with them. Aloha Alex

I do agree, about the sense of accomplishment, plus it never ceases to amaze how these cars were engineered, and put together. The brain that goes behind every detail. Good thing, now a days, I have my MkV jetta to drive in case if I would to work on my E90. |

Spare cars always do the trick. Less pressure on finishing the job.
