something's not unscrewed. go back over the DIY and recheck EVERY screw.

There are also a couple of plugs that need unplugged. One of the discreet ones is under the e-brake area. That one almost fooled me. It is white and needs to be pulled forward.The other is back near the rear.

Looks like you used way too much. I barely used one pass.

HondaGoneRogue · 07-30-2009, 04:46 PM

Just wipe it off with alcohol. I will come off with a LOT of elbow grease. That'll teach ya!

I actually just went through with it like that, and it turned out awesome lol ill take pics when fully done

HondaGoneRogue · 07-30-2009, 05:23 PM

Carefull handling it until its fully dry, or you will make "waves" and bumps! Glad to hear you got it! Can't wait for pics. Who did you buy yours from? Seems like all the vendors are fighting for the sales with the same pics lol.
