Wait, What? Your bumper beam has welded nuts? Maybe you need to go out there and put some more ass into it.
It says to take off 4-14mm Nuts, 4-14mm Bolts and 2-12mm bolts. So far I've found the 4-14mm nuts and the 2-12mm bolts but not the 4-14mm bolts...?
There should be 4 bolts inside the front of the bumper beam, they will be deep inside some holes. It's been a while, but I really only remember the 4 large 14mm bolts that were inside the bumper beam holes.
cut the welded nuts off..you dont need them. i promise. also the fmic kit we have came with a new bumper beam,coolant res. and the washer resevoir didnt need to be moved at all, only taken out for space during the install. i didnt notice but do you have a lightweight or jdm bumper beam? you obviously cant re-use the stock one..its garbage. if you need hands on help just let me know and i can figure out a way to help. also i hope you have a dremel..for the bumper.
Well everything is partially solved, all that's left is me trimming the front bumper to fit and let me say this, I haz no skillz. Update later......
well like i said i can help..i can cut it for you if you want. i may even still have a template that came with the aps. if theres anything i can do please let me know. and good luck
Well right now I have the car running with the perrin fmic I just need to buy their coolant overflow tank because they didn't provide me with one. Right now I'm using my OEM one but it's not secured. I still have a few leaks I have to fix, the bypass valve gasket and checking the couplers because I still hear this high pitch noise. Driving is pretty bad, afterfires, laggy, only 14psi no I used to do 19psi with the tmic lol. Putting on my turbo soon, OEM STi TMIC for sale.
